Lower Radiator Hose
 

My belt cut into my lower radiator hose on my '97 Land Rover Discovery. Don't know how that happened. Is it possible to replace that hose without taking a bunch of components off? It looks difficult to get to and that hose connects in four different places!

Anyway, I will start the repair soon and am hoping it will be easier than it looks. ANY advice on this repair will be greatly appreciated. I also wonder how I can keep that from happening again and once installed if I am going to be looking at a hose STILL touching the serpentine belt.

Thanks
