Well not too long ago my upper radiator hose went out (the plastic piece in the middle). The members of this forum made it known that I should go ahead and replace the rest of the plastic pieces since in people's experience once one fails the rest are short to follow. I got out of my car today and got a nice wiff of that familiar heart breaking smell of coolant. I popped the hood and found the leak, but I don't know what it is called. It is the plastic piece that the t-stat housing bolts to. I took a couple pictures, the wet spot is in the middle of the picture. Just look beyond the fill cap but under that smaller hose running over the top. Does anybody know what this is? I'll also be ordering the t-stat housing itself, lower hose and the degas. If someone could tell me what part this is and maybe part # that would be great. Thanks in advance, I'm trying to order this ASAP.
