I have two question for the knowledgeable people on this list.

I am replacing a leaky coolant hose on my wasserboxer.  This particular hose
attaches to one of the long pipes which run to the radiator.

1.  Should I put some kind of sealing compound or pipe goop on before I
remake the connection?  What?

2.  I have read that these pipes rust out occasionally.  Do they rust out at
the hose connection?  Should I apply some kind of rust treatment before I
remake the connection?

Thanks for the information.
