This pipe F87Z-8920-BB (Dorman PN: 902-004) is the pipe that comes out of the block, bolts to the RH accessory bracket and goes to the lower radiator hose and splits of to feed the heater core.

I have called Ford, O'Reily's, Advanced Auto and Autozone. No one has the ability to find what kind of seal this uses when it goes into the block.

Does it use a o-ring or a sealant? If a oring does anyone know a size or part number?

Thanks for the help.

It uses an o-ring. When I did my 2.3 to 2.5 swap the water pump came with it.

Is it this smaller o-ring?

That's the one.
