Where I can find a new metal coolant pipe for a 98 Cav?

I'm not sure what the pipe is called, but it is the metal one that goes into the head when they adapted the RWD engines to FWD.

Mine has a pin hole 1" from where it goes into the head and has started leaking bad.

I already replaced the head a few months ago. Guess I may as well do the water pump while I am in there this time.

It is the large metal one across the top of the 2.2 engine that goes into the head when they adapted the RWD engines to FWD.

Do they sell these pipes locally? Like Autozone, etc.
