Water pump

There are two metal pipes running along the block under the exhaust manifold, they both connect to the water outlet housing (that's the part the thermostat housing bolts onto) one connects by way of a rubber hose elbow (marked in red) and the other one connects using a flange with two bolts. It’s more than likely it will be the rubber elbow, not very easy to get at. The blue part in the pic is a small heat shield; you may be able to bend this back to gain access to the hose clip. The easiest way I found is to work from the front of the car using a pair of round nose pliers, you can just about get them in there to release the hose clip if its facing the correct way. The part # for the hose is 16283-42010. The other possibility is the gasket that connects the flange to the housing, also marked in red.
