Replacing coolant/water pipe

Had to put a new gasket in the thermostat housing and noticed a crack in the water pipe. So, after removing the cracked pipe easily I cannot get the new pipe to properly seat in the water pump housing. I can only get it in far enough that the O-ring is barely in. Anyone have any tips on how to reinstall this thing?
