Instead of cutting it I'd try to tap something with a gentle taper into the bent end (a punch comes to mind) and try to make the end round again. between that and gently squeezing the straight section (not the flare) in a vise you could probably get it to fit snugly again with some Loctite or epoxy to complete the seal.

If the part still hits the hole. Just put some sealant on it and tap it back in. If it's bent a little it will still seal once it meets up to the stopping ledge.
If the bend us on the vacuum hose side it would have be bent pretty bad not to usE it. Lots of ideas should be no problem to fix.
