Default cooling tube replacement

Anyone ever replace the plastic tube on the driver's side of the block under the intake? One of the ports on mine snapped off last night, luckily while I was idling in a parking lot. If anyone has how much of a pain in the ass was it? Thanks guys.

Its a pretty good PITA, but not too bad.
You have to take off the upper and lower intake manifolds to replace it.
Good news is the part is not expensive.

dave,

Thanks for the info. Trying to get a list of what all I am going to need to do everything. One trip to get parts would be nice instead of my usual twenty trips. LOL.
