Don:

I used a short piece of convoluted hose and found it relatively easy to fit.

Later on I replaced it with some of the present day Kevlar plain hose, which
proved every bit as difficult to fit as you and others have described.  I
did find that removing the rad connections and the top hose allowed the rad
to be manoeuvred sufficiently to allow wriggle room - but it IS a pig of a
job!

Anyone have a "trick" for installing bottom rad hose on my P?
 
I've tried swearing, grunting and wrestling.... 
 
Do I need to remove water pump, rad (God I hope not), or both?
