r50 part verification and how to install

[hikneeken]

i have a coolant leak on 2000 pathfinder, the part is connected to water piping which is connected to upper radiator hose, also the part is under distribution block
is this part 14055-R50005? there are so many different 14055 i want to make sure i buy the right one
how hard is it to replace the part? through brief reading people say the water by pass hose is done with water pump... so does this mean i have to do tbelt service to get to this part?

Couldn't find that part number. What is the name of the part?

[hikneeken]

it is to the right of water piping and left of distribution , underneath spark wire
i am unsure of name but think it is water hose to thermostat??

curious if you ever replaced this hose? mine is leaking and I don't want to have to pull the timing back cover off. Is there another way to replace this hose?

Provide your VIN and I can give you an exact part number.
