Default Coolant Hose Question (with pics)

Hey guys, I searched for my problem and think I have found what I need to know, but I would love some feedback.
Starting yesterday, when I would shut off my car, antifreeze would puddle beneath the car and I heard a 'fizzing' sound. It appears to be coming from the hose circled in the first picture. I couldn't tell if it was the hose or the gasket between the hose and radiator. The second picture is a picture of the entire hose. Is the link that I included below both pictures a link to the correct part? If so, can I use that part number to see if anyone in town carries it?? It's an '89 944 NA. Thanks ahead of time!
UPDATE: It is not the hose, it is the gasket where the hose meets the radiator. Does that make sense? Can someone tell me what that part is? In the first picture, the circle indicates the nozzle with the gasket that is shot.

Be careful not to overtighten that thing. It's plastic.
Mine broke and I had to replace it.

Tell them it's the little plastic nipple that screws into the top left corner of the radiator. There's only one fitting like it on an manual trans NA rad. That fitting cracked on my car.

The part is ~$5, might as well do it right.

Thanks, man.
I'll be as descriptive as possible when ordering the part.

944-106-927-00-M100 with 944-106-928-00-M100 behind it (a seal).

Pelican has each for like $3.75.

Check here to make sure we're talking about the same thing:

That is exactly what I found, Daryl! I'm pretty sure that will fix me up. Thanks for the response.
