Select the bounding UVs for those two loops and scale them in the UV editor in Y apart or together to remove the stretching. It's just stretched in one dimension right?

EDIT: If that doesn't work, can you post a shot with the image turned on, dimmed, in the UV editor and select the UVs around where the problem is?
