I need help identifying this part

[GregBibs]

Hello! Quite sometime ago I made a post regarding a coolant leak I was having, I have located the source and I would like to have someone tell what the part in my photo is. The area where the coolant spurts out is circled in red.

Thanks in advance!

That is your fuel pump. Shouldn't be any coolant there.

You sure that's coolant and not gas? A fuel pump with a bad diaphragm will squirt gas out of that hole.

If coolant is spurting out there a coolant leak is the least of your problems

LOL, my thoughts exactly. As everyone else said that's your fuel pump. Impossible for coolant to get in there.

Hahaha oh hell, well guess I have two leaks then! Thanks for clearing that up! Well then my next question would be, what is supposed to be right there? Is something supposed to be connected to it, or was there some sort of seal that wore away?

That's a vent hole for the fuel pump diaphragm. Nothing connects to it. A bad pump will often blow gas out the hole. Sometimes it gets pumped into the crankcase. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M6F3TVzYbAs
