If the OP has someone lock the brakes and rev it in gear, he will see his engine trying to roll over and take that hose with it.
That is probably why it popped off. New engine mounts will prevent that from happening again. (or driving slowly forever) This can probably be done in an hour or two with the engine in place lifted slightly on a jack. There may be just one that has cracked and failed. It will be in the direction of engine rotation.

Make a silly mistake, your friends are probably going to tease you a little bit. On this board most of us feel like we are those buddies just sitting around shooting the sheisse. The key to this place is to be able to laugh at yourself, and not take things too seriously.

Nice fix on the hose. Had a Mazda with a cracked intake hose, but the crack was minor and in the bottom of a crease. Booger to find, soooo easy to fix.

For what it's worth, this is how I envision PPOT. And most times, the conversations are exactly like this show. Lots of puffing, lots of banter, and plenty of ribbing...but in the end, we're all on the same team. Except Tabs.  It's why I stick around.

He also has no duty to perform: https://inpublicsafety.com/2014/03/duty-to-act-legal-obligations-vs-community-expectations/ In 1981, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals ruled in Warren vs. District of Columbia (444 A.2d. 1, D.C. Ct. of Ap., 1981). The Court stated that it is a “fundamental principle of American law that a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any individual.” Consider our apostate a god-send. Right now all his prophecies have somewhat come to fruition.
