heater hose replacement and related connection to engine block
What is your question?
the heater has two hoses. one water flows in the other flows out. i blew the inlet hose i think (looking at fire wall its the one on right side) a friend damaged the male connector where the hose connects to from fire wall. this is a metal pipe attached to the engine block i think, not sure cant see where it connects. the damaged connection point comes off the metal pipe. the replacement hose connects to it from the fire wall. i need to find a part number or description documentation on replacing the metal pipe. if you need more info. 916 370 8559 my name is Don i am in Sacramento California

Don, I think you are looking for the water tube on the rear of the engine. This pipe connects to both cylinder heads and goes under the intake manifold. This pipe should have your coolant temperature sensor on the passenger side. You will need the pipe, o-rings for water pipe and coolant tempeature sensor, and intake manifold gasket. I would recommend you check these part numbers against the vin# before ordering them.
