Decided to use aircraft safety wire instead of welding…pictures detail the repair. The repair itself took about 30 min.

It's been said clearly. What I was thinking. You did a fantastic job of securing the tube the the tunnel. But the real problem is... The actual-use tension is not sideways, it's backwards. Your fix just might hold it... But it's still a *might*. It needs some strength to handle the forward/back motion.
