    If you don't know where this is located then how can you X2 that this is the part that is leaking? You need to step back a moment and find the leak on your car. Then, you take a picture and ask us which parts are needed to fix it. I'd suggest starting a new thread on your own for your issue, to be respectful of the OP with the hand print on his forehead.

    well, the leak im speaking of is on the actual firewall, i dont see where a plastic elbow would make a diff... unless im completely missing a hose? in which case i have a bigger problem... i can only see where the leak is coming from if im under the car, which makes it extremely difficult to take a picture with my phone.

    Nope, it is on the firewall, like the other poster said .. from what i have read before this is some kinda drain for the AC or rainwater or something .. the thing is if my heater core is leaking in the car can it communicate to this drain tube .. that is where the water is coming .. i know where that elbow is and it is right above the water pump, that is not it

    Then you guys got different issues than I'm thinking of.

    If that's the heater box drain tube, then it shouldn't leak coolant. If coolant leaks out of the firewall you either have a bad heater core or a bad heater hose at the connection to the heater core.
