Whichever side it pulls toward, check the other side first.

I'm having the same issue. When you say a "collapsed hose" the first thought that comes to mind is flattened rubber line, is this what you mean? I've seen rubber lines crack, but not flatten. Or do you mean a hard line has been crushed flat somewhere?

Re: pulling to the right
Having new calipers is good peace of mind, but.....now I have to jack the car up, again, and then remove the wheels, again, put the new lines on, then bleed the air out, again.....just wish I could have figured it out the first time so I wouldn't have to repeat everything.
One thing I did do when I did the calipers was to repack and tighten the wheel bearings while I was at it, they sure needed it, and that took car of some of the weird noises I was hearing while driving.
Just so you know, this car is new to me, but it hasn't been on the road in many moons, and I just started driving it a few weeks ago, so I'm trying to iron out all the wrinkles. Since it is a project car for resale, I want to do things right, but also keep the budget and time factor to a minimum.

Well, next time you'll know... just the fluid you put in there, costs near as much as the calipers. They're so cheep, it works the same way like we all choose not to re-use toilet paper or something, even if it doesn't seem "worn out" yet.
When you replace your timing chain, put a new water pump on. When you're replacing your tires, put new valve stems in. When you take your calipers off, .... you do the math.
