where the hose meets the back of the water pump, there is, what looks like a pressed in pipe to the block. this has cracked on my 1.4,

are they changeable?
or can i fix it another way?

ive tried chemical metal but no joy so far :(

You should be able to get the old one out, will be a bitch of a job though.
Get the biggest pair of expandable pliers you can and try and turn it out, or take the pump out and try to hit it out(not likely though with the engine in the car).

What is the internal diameter of this pipe? you could sleeve it...
