front tank filler neck

[jrisingmoon]

I bought a fuel filler neck from NAPA to replace the front tank's neck. I had to cut it because it was practically melted on. Problem with the NAPA neck is that its straight and a REALLY tight fit and sharp turn from the tank to cap. I don't think it'll be a problem but I don't know. Afraid the thing might crack in the future. Any suggestions?
It's still uncut so can be returned without any hassle.

Maybe a heat gun to relax it some?

Is this the rubber connecting hose or???

yeah, it's rubber. It's a quick 90 from the tank to the cap. I don't think PVC would work--or even how I'd attach it if it did. I tried powerstroke.com but no luck. I'm going to try a radiator shop in the next few days. Maybe they know of someone.
