Bonnet alignment, maybe some under bonnet insulation has come loose, possibly doubled up under itself, making a thicker section right on the wrong spot! ..
Is the under bonnet insulation still intact?, can you see the bonnets frame?
I'm pretty sure that the bonnet cover itself is aluminium, but the frame that supports the clamshell is steel. Maybe if it's rusted, it may have distorted just enough to push on the hose?
