The pipe that screws into the top of the water pump and hooks to a coolant line is rusted onto my old pump and I can't get it off. Is this something I can find at a local parts store or is this a dealer only item? And what is the correct part name? I am having no luck finding it. :dunno:

I guessing it's the heater line you talking about.
Not sure what the official name is but it is available at the dealer.

Ok, I think I have established that it is called the water pump inlet tube. I have found it for everything else but a renix version.......

The RENIX engines I've worked on had a straight pipe nipple and a molded hose. I've switched every one to the HO pipe with a straight hose. The threads are the same.
