2000 Saturn SL1

i was in an accident a few years ago, and i had the front end pulled out as far as it could go. i noticed my lower radiator hose touches the fan shroud, i was afraid of it wearing out the hose and now my fears are justified; i have a hole in my lower radiator hose where it touches, i have a replacement hose, but what can i do to keep the hose protected or from touching the fan shroud? thank you for your time. i would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Find a plastic cup cut to make a curved shield. Punch hole in it to accept tir wrapes. Place around hose tighten. and your good to go
