Having trouble with rubber grommet

Hey everyone. I just got the Trick Flow LT1 intake elbow for my car. Can anyone help me with the rubber grommet that holds the air temperature sensor? I can't seem to make it fit into the elbow and I really don't see a way to fit it neither. I tried to search but the website doesn't seem to be loading the search. Thanks.

The hardest thing for me was finding a size "R" drill and correct tap. It does have the divider but I'm pretty stock so I see it as a help. Here's a pic:

I chose the non-polished and decided to paint it black.

Yes, I know, I need to clean the engine
