Default Help! Headlight troubles.

So, my passenger side headlight has been "winking" since getting out of the shop. After poking around under the hood I realize that the light is hitting this metal tubing pictured here. It seems to be hitting right in the red circled area.



What I'd like to know, is can I maybe bend this tube out of the way without completely screwing things up? It seems to be coming out of the engine coolant reservoir, so I'm reluctant to do much with it.

if not, I'm assuming this is a part that was replaced when I just had it in the shop so I can get them to fix it.

edit:fixed the picture
