Hi,
What I believe you are referring to is the steel water pump inlet tube. Yes, it is replaceable. If you look at pics 1 and 2 below, let me know if that is what you are referring to.
If it is, I believe you will need to remove the intake manifold to replace it. Once it is off, there is one bolt holding it in place. If you do it, make sure the o-rings are in good condition and lubricate them with coolant before installing.
Let me know if this is the correct part.
Take care,
Joe
