Yes, with the hose flipped around it lined up no problem and I had sufficient room to stick the plenum on top, get my hand in and give it one good push to snap on, there was no resistance coming back from the hose like there was before.

I looked through my old service records and saw they recommended the PO do a secondary air pump service at one point, so I'm thinking they must have flipped it while poking around in there.
