Default pipe keeps flying off

i just bought a 00 LT blazer runs great but only thing wrong is that a pipe in my motor pay that does from the motor into my heater core keeps flying off. its the end that is ontop of the motor. theres a little clamp the first time it went flying off they said the clamp wasint on tight. the sec time it broke off the clamp snaped in half. i have had to change the coolant 2 times because of this and my motor is covered in coolant and smells. please help why does this pipe keep flying off?

Try double clamping it,, if that does not work, the hose might be too big. The heater core has 2 different size hoses, I hope whoever replaced them realized that. Possibly wrong size hose on it.....
