Default Dipstick Tube

Havinf some problems with refitting my oil dipstci ktube. I took it out because i thought it was all one to try fit my manifold, but now i can't get the tube to sit back in place. It doesn't look like it's snapped or anything, but just wont go back in the extra 3-5mm needed. Any ideas?

tried that, but as said it's about 3-5mm short. Even tried a tap of the rubber hammer
