Hi All-
On my 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 Hemi, I have a small coolant leak. I noticed its coming from the pipe in the attached picture. It leaking from where this pipe is attached into the engine. It's leaking out of the top part. Out of curiosity, what is the name or this pipe/ How Does it come out if I need to replace it?

Thank You

2010 original hoses, good time to just replace them all and do a flush with mopar HOAT coolant? Don't have to bother identifying it, just get a entire new radiator lines replacement kit? just a thought.

Is that the hose that goes to heater core?

It is coming from water pump so google water pump hoses 2010 ram hemi and see the options.

Looks like it's by the thermostat housing. I think you have the right part, @Burla

Water pump inlet tube.Probably 10 20 bucks from rock auto.If it's leaking from the top it could just be the o ring but these usually get pretty ugly (rust).I believe you get one on a new water pump if you want to go that route.There is a bolt in the middle(through bracket),Hose clamp on bot. end and the top just pops out (o-ring).Get well soon

Yeah, could possibly be a coolant failure leading to rust if it is original coolant, time for a Mopar Hoat 5 year coolant flush. Check the condition of the hoses.
