My wife was rear ended and now the engine is leaking coolant from the a tube that comes out of the front of the intake manifold. I've no idea what to call this part to get another one. Its roughly 1/2 in diameter plastic tube with a 90 elbow in it that comes from the front of the intake and turns to the left side of the engine and apears to go into or thru the base of a tension pulley. Its a few inched above the thermostat housing if I remember right, but basically in the front center of the engine.

If someone has some info on what this is and how it connects to the intake (i'm really hopng i don't have to replace the whole intake) so I can get it fixed would be great!

Thanks

Hey, I've replaced them before. You do have to take the belt tensioner off in order to replace the plastic elbow. It has o-ring seals on both ends of the tube.
