Lower heater hose

I am running a Mishimoto radiator and a long water pump. The lower hose sits on a raised portion of the frame. If I had known this was going to be an issue I would have fixed the problem when everything was apart. Maybe this will save someone time before they have the same issue. Not sure why the frame has a lip at that spot, I don't see a need for it. Not a lot of pressure on the hose but my concern is engine tourque along with wear over time followed by a leak! The first picture shows the hose raised by a block of wood, the others where it would normally sit. The radiator outlet is angled up about 30 dgrees. Anyone had this issue? A hose with different bends maybe for a different application would do it. If any one has a solution or suggestions please let me know. Thanks in adavance!
