Default coolant leak....

so while doing my valley pan i noticed a small coolant leak

its coming from the bypass pipe where it meets the block under the power steering pump

now if i unbolt the pipe from the heads, will i be able to pull the pipe out and change the "oring"?

There are two pipes that go in there.. On the PS the larger hard pipe goes in right behind the thermostat. It connects at the back of both heads and To the heater core pipe. There are orings on he back of both heads that should be replaced.

The DS pipe is smaller in diameter and easier to get out but both need the IM removed t get at them
