I'm surprised you had so much trouble with these hoses. They were the easiest in my opinion. Here a photo I took putting everything back together.
You can see the clamp tool on the Oil fill clamp (the tool was snaked over the wiring harness). All the hoses were very easy to push back on the firewall connectors. You can see there are no obstructions for the hoses on the right, so it was easy to just put the clamp tool directly on each of those hose clamps and move them over. The main coolant hose was pre-attached before I put it in the car and I just attached it at the engine side (3 inches to the left).
Overall, putting it back together was way easier than taking it apart. But now that I've done it once, I would say taking it apart is pretty easy, now that I know what I'm doing.
