That is the piece that's broken along with the hose that comes off the top of the oil cooler. The coolant fitting in this case broke as it was probably the weakest link once the pressure became too high because the water pump was not working since the alternator pulley sheared off. I have yet to have someone tell me they have heard of an alternator pulley shearing off. Last edited by robdelorenzo; 08-29-2017 at 03:30 PM.
