Engine coolant outlet flange
Engine coolant outlet flange or atleast I think that is what it should be called.
I was able to remove what was left of the flange by driving it into the block and then removing it from the valley by removing the t-stat housing.
This is what I was left with.
I have checked my "go to" parts stores and came up with nada! I have searched the "Dorman" site for an hour trying to find a push in flange, and came up with nada!
Is this still available from Ford?
Do I have to tap the block and put a screw in one?

Most guys are threading that and using a standard threaded nipple.
Dealership still has them though.
