WOW, replace that hose with a new one! If you just stretched out the old one it will soon be leaking again! In fact replace them all along with the clamps.

Have someone put a rag over the exhaust exit and with the car up on jack stands, listen for any leaks. Place your hands close to the gasket joints in the exhaust system to feel for any air leaks, but don't touch it, unless you just started it up cold. If you block off the exhaust and it dies pretty quick then it is a relatively good sealed system.
