You should push/work the ball right up to the frame hose clip which it can't pass.
If you do place the hose back on the valve then you should pin prick (2-3 times) the hose past the ball bearing towards the exhaust valve. This also applies to caps!! You will need to do this as changes is ambient temperature may create a vacuum.

5/32" ball bearing is just a tad larger (.1mm) than my 3.85mm ball. Mine was a bitch to move around in the hose... although mine had a stem on it...
I dont think we have the risk of a vaccum forming in the small amount of air left in the tube... the exhuast itself gets way hotter than any ambient temperatures, I checked it a few times after driving and the flap never closed at all... I will monitor it just to make sure... but i will not be poking holes in my hoses.
