It must be able to be held on your face with a gentle air intake from your nose, if it can't do that then it doesn't fit your face properly and will always leak whilst diving, which is a incredible pain to be clearing ones mask every sec.
That particular snorkel is a MARES one, it has a rigid clamp, personally I hate it and will soon get rid of it and probably put a more traditional type mounting. ie piece of rubber with 2 holes LOL.
Did you buy it on line? Or try one on in the shop because every mask, even the same model have some ever so slight differences and if they don't fit your face properly will always leak. Especially around the nose. I never buy a mask online. Of course if it is leaking because the glass was not sealed properly then this is a different matter. I always place mask lightly against my face then slightly inhale through my nose. if the mask adheres tightly to my face when I shake my head even under slight vacuum, then I know it will be good underwater. Do you/did you perform this test?
I bought it online, but measured my eyes like it said on the diagram, and it was 1/8 of an inch off. Do you think ill be okay?

Hey friend, how do you attach the snorkel to this mask?

But it's a nice mask for sure.

The worst mask because the water seeps into the mask
