What is this part?

Hey guys, I have a small coolant leak and it's coming from this part. I have no clue what it is called. It was missing a bolt so I replaced it and that didn't fix the problem. I assume it's the gasket. Can you guys tell me what this is so I know what gasket to order? It the piece that the radiator hose connects to. I really appreciate it!

Are you sure your head gasket is not leaking? I cant really tell by the pics.

that would be a coolant passage... and there's a gasket for it yes. so take it off and replace the gasket.. if there was a bolt missing, chances are it became warped from heat and burst.

I'm not 100% sure it's not the head gasket but it's just coolant. Thanks so much Boosted. I really appreciate it.

no no bro. no head gasket.. in that little box thing, is a gasket.. the whole box is a coolant passage!!

Thanks again Boostd. This thing's been kicking my butt.

lol. that sucks dude. hopefully you'll get a new gasket and be done with it! it's really easy to replace.. there will be a mess of coolant though, so it's best to do it before you've driven it!
