I take it you are refering to the water pump bottom hose inlet
pipe?
If the aly pipe is severely corroded you will have large dimples
in the surface which may not seal up using just normal hose
pipes and clips (you must remove the corrosion/white powder as
this will leak).
Once you get the aly properly clean and dry you can assemble the
bottom hose using rtv sealant and you will have a perfect sealed
joint. Consider using double hose clips. Remember a hose pipe
with rtv sealant is very hard to remove! Be sure its in the
right place.

so yes the bottom hose inlet pipe. I do have large dimples in
fact, felt very rough.
sorry what's aly? and rtv sealant?

aly is aluminium and RTV is a silicone sealant (room temperature
vulcanization)

On a 200Tdi the water pump has to come off to change the timing
belt. If you've not changed the timing belt and the last
date/mileage it was changed is unknown I'd be inclined to change
the water pump for a new one and whilst off do the belt at the
same time, could save a lot of grief in the long run. Otherwise
the RTV sealant route would work, personally not my cup of tea
as it makes the hose a complete cunt to get off later if you
ever need to.
If you go down this route avoid cheap Britpart pattern shite.
Good quality stuff all the way. I got my kit from Glencoyne:

Garage not available right now and doing it in from of the

/>so need to be quick as possible with my limited knowledge :D
Went to Wurth for something else and told them about the problem
and they gave me bond and seal. But later I read the label and
it said it has no silicone. Anyway had some time cleaned off the
corrosion (it was flaking off) and applied this bond and seal.
Now waiting for it to dry before filling it with coolant...

long strip of emery cloth, wrap it round, hold one end in each
hand, pull one side and alternate back and fourth (like drying
yourself with bath towel)
older engines the water pump was iron

Your pump appears to have the outlets in a different position to
mine, mine has one at the bottom from the radiator, your
radiator plumbing looks to be better routed than mine, is the
engine from a Defender?

I wonder if the Disco and Defender pumps are interchangeable?
