You are right, I can pretty much guarantee that you would break of the Pitot
tube if you attach it now. As far as making sure you don't loose the tubes
into the wing just remember the immortal words of any home builder, "Duct
Tape is your friend."

Subject: Zenith-List: 701 pitot tube
I am getting ready to rivet up the wing with the pitot tube on
it. It appears to me that once I attach the pitot tube it will be
hard to move the wing around without running the risk of breaking off the
tube.
Did anyone have a good solution for this problem? Is there some
simple way to make this tube/plate assembly removable? I also worry
that if I leave the tube unattached and plan to rivet in the
tube/plate later, that I will loose the tubing inside the wing and
will be unable to recover it without cutting a hole in the wing.
Are my concerns warranted, or should I just connect and rivet up the
pitot system and hope I don't bump it while finishing up the plane?
