Try taking the hose off again and see if you can make it the correct shape. If not, you will have to replace either the heater core (which is where one those hoses go) or the valve.1992 Prelude S w/swapped H22A

For those particular hoses I would use the original "squeeze and clamp" ones.

If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.
