What the heck is this?

I cannot for the life of me figure out the name of this part... It is #6 in the diagram and my upper radiator hose connects to it and then it connects to the head.

 

I've been searching upper radiator hose inlet and things of that nature but cannot figure it out.

 

1997 Honda Civic D16y7

Nah that would be for the lower radiator hose where the thermostat is.

 

If I'm not mistaken the water exits the head, and enters the block. Making the top the water outlet since the water is leaving there....but then I Google image searched "D16Y7 Coolant outlet" and it does look like that is where the thermostat is.

 

Something seems a little funky after looking for both a water inlet and water outlet on eBay. I'll look on Mitchell tomorrow when I get to work and see if I can find anything for you. A Honda parts dept. would be the best place to go to. Whatever you do, go in person. They should have an exploded version identical to this but with part numbers and then you'll know the right number with cross referencing that P/N.

Some of those pictures on google images showed the upper flange and the lower water/thermostat housing. The thermostat housing actually sits behind the motor. Its weird that little part that connects to the head and upper radiator hose.
