Hey Jeff, I started messing around with it last night and noticed that the hose barbell that goes to the water pump had what looked like silicone. Tried removing the fitting with a wrench and it wouldn't budge so I gave it a little heat and it popped loose to reveal 1/2 of the threads missing. The silicone turned out to be JB weld.

I'm going to pull the listing tomorrow until I figure out what to do with it. Last thing I want to do is sell someone a bunk part.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
