[Python] Python CRC32 Reverse Hash e8b7be43 to string "a"

I am trying to reverse a hash into a sequence of bytes. The function is shown below.

def decrypt(hash, size):
bytes = bin(int(hash, 16)).replace("0b", "").zfill(32)
bytes = flip(reverse(int(bytes, 2), 32), 33)
div = "100000100110000010001110110110111"
bytes = bytes.zfill(size*8)
div = div.zfill(size*8)
res = ""
print(bytes + " - DIV")
print(div + " - POLY")
while div[0] != "1":
res = ""
for b in range(len(bytes)):
if div == bytes:
res = res + "0"
else:
res = res + "1"
bytes = bin(int(res, 2) << 1).replace("0b", "").zfill(size*8)
div = bin(int(div, 2) << 1).replace("0b", "").zfill(size*8)
print(bytes + " - DIV")
print(div + " - POLY")
print(bytes)
bytes = flip(bytes[0:8], 8) + flip(bytes[8:16], 8) + flip(bytes[16:24], 8) + flip(bytes[24:32], 8) + bytes[32:len(bytes)]
bytes = bytes[0:len(bytes)-32]
bytes = [int(reverse(int(bytes[(c*8)c+1)*8], 2), 8), 2) for c in range(int(len(bytes)/8))]
print(hex(zlib.crc32(bytearray(bytes))))
return bytes
print(decrypt(sys.argv[1], int(sys.argv[2])+4))


And here is the output.

The issue here is that the hash of the bytearray that the "decrypt" function generates does not match the input hash e8b7be43. How do I fix this?
