Twisted Brake Hose

Hi Folks, just had the car in for its first MFK (Swiss equivalent of the MOT). It passed but they came up with one advisory, which has to be fixed within one month. With reference to the attached photo the advisory translation reads so, "fwd right hand brake hose twisted and under stress". When I look at it, I must say, I totally agree. When I contacted the Land Rover specialist/dealer who did the brake shoe and disc replacement back in April they claim that there is nothing wrong with the installation. But bring the vehicle in anyway and they'll have a look. Does this installation look okay to you guys? Note: photos were taken with the wheels on full right hand lock.

Looks twisted to me, just drop the calliper and straighten it.

Hi tayaste, thanks for the confirmation, but I'm a bit long in the tooth to be rolling around under the car I'm afraid. I'll leave it to the garage to correct. I just wanted some back-up advice for when I get there. I don't want him charging me for what is obviously an incorrect installation.
