If the shroud is loose, you should be able to move it over enough to allow room to put the hose on completely. (You'll have to remove all of the shroud bolts to get it loose enough)

Thanks! Would that work for the oil cooler line on the bottom of the radiator? The difficulties with the line is when I get it to the radiator and place it there it doesn't turn

Be sure to have a little slack once you get the line to the radiator, if there is pressure pulling back on the line it will be difficult to screw it on. (You may have to move the radiator toward to line to connect it and then move it back in place.)
