I sell used alternators for $50 plus shipping. I haven't seen that hose connection fail too much but I don't think there's anything wrong with going to the hardware store and getting a copper joint like was suggested by Craig. Like it was said earlier. get those pieces fixed first and then see if you've done any damage.

Replaced the bleeder valve today, filled it with distilled water, burped it, and drove it like I stole it for a bit.
No leaks, no temperature issues.
I may have dodged a bullet here.
Thanks for the help and encouragement.
I'm new to the world of Pcars.
I think the problem is solved.
Tomorrow I'll pour in the unicorn tears.
I LOVE my Boxster.

Great to hear! Enjoy. It feels better when you fix it yourself.
