Hi everyone i am looking at an 01 f150 4.2 v6. using a radiator pressure tester I found a small hole in the alluminum pipe going from the bypass hose to the intake manifold, while removing the alluminum pipe from the intake manifold (press out style, not threaded) the far end of the pipe with the flange stayed in the intake. I am having trouble removing this if any of you have seen this let me know what you think about getting it out

 

I got that pipe out of the intake manifold by hammering it down using a 1/2inch extension, then removed thermostat and had acces to pry it back up and out
