Straightening a Safari Snorkel

Does anyone have any bright ideas of how i can straighten a Safari Snorkel?

After the ditch incident, it got a bit deformed - Not a lot mind. There
is not a crease, its just a bit bent..

I've tried leaving it out in the sun and standing on it to no avail...

hot air gun? works on my saab bumpers to make them the right shape
again. just dont get it too hot!

Boiling water or alternatively a soaked towel superheated in the microwave
oven may help.

Take care
