pull pipes off the engine, get a length of hose and bosh it on to create a loop.

personally, I'd just fit a new matrix.

pain in the arse without a matrix in the car, i'd just throw a new one in. first time it will take you 18 hours to do. second time will take you about 30 minutes

At the moment unfortunatly i dont have the time to do the heater matrix but will be doing it as and when the weather gets better so its only a temporary fix and from what i have heard should take a day to do am i right?

Familiarise yourself with the dashboard fixing points and you'll fly through it quicker than anticipated.
