Not sure what that has to do with National Pipe Thread sizes.
The water pump connections are cast. Just not sure why they chose a size different than the standard heater hose size. Unless it was intended to match the heater core inlet, which is also larger than 5/8”.
Is there a special hose from the factory that went from the water pump to the heater core?
