Subject:Re: 2.1L metal cooling pipe on left side of engine....

Chris,

I assume you mean the metal pipe that goes from the water pump back to the
thermostat housing.  It also has several little metal stubs where cooling
hoses attach.

Part number 025121081G  list $93.75  from Camelback VW  $70.33
Sealing o-ring at water pump:  N90284401

This pipe can develop rust spots just waiting to give way.  I was replacing
the other cooling hoses and using a small screwdriver broke through some
weak spots.  Especially near where the little stub pipes are attached.
