Henry, and the others who made similar comments,

You're right. I had looked (not very well) through the Moss catalog, and 
concluded that this was a hard to get part. Before looking in the catalog I 
thought I remembered comments to the effect that one had to buy the whole 
assembly, and when I looked in the cooling system area, there was nothing there.

In future I will apply extra diligence. I have, however, learned something about
JB Weld, which will likely come in handy later.

Thanks,
Jim (who also doesn't like being stranded) Wallace

Jim,
     
You are talking about a $10.00 part. I would have no piece of mind 
whatsoever using any type of repair on this pipe. I can just see myself 
200 miles from home enjoying a beautiful day, when I suddenly smell 
antifreeze. I stop, look under the bonnet to see another pinhole has 
developed. Now what? 
     
That $10.00 seems REAL inexpensive now!
