On front of the waterpump is a plastic fitting retained by two hex bolts with a hose running from it to the coolant reservoir. Does anyone know what it's called and if it's available as a spare part?
I've noticed that it leaks slowly - about a drip a second - and would go a long way to explaining my coolant loss. I've replaced the 0-ring howver it still leaks and I think the plastic fitting may have distorted slightly so that a good seal can't be made. I'm using a 27mm x 3mm O-ring, I tried a 27x2.5 but it leaked like a sieve!
I'll post a picture as soon as I can.

That fitting gets warped and the seal can not be made to hold anymore. It is a cheap part though and easy to replace.

"Is it #7? It has a 951 part number."
Thanks Mikeo, that's the one! I'll try the local OPC first and then Sunset. I notice Paragon don't have it listed.
