Default Coolant leak: aka, what's this doohickey called?

I've got a coolant leak in the front right of my car, and I'll be dipped if I can figure out what it's called to replace it.

It's some kind of union, it's not the radiator, and the hoses seem to be attached to it. Anybody got any ideas? I'd like to fix it, but can't figure out in the PET diagrams what it's called or what it really is. Thanks!

Are those two separate pieces or one piece with two hose receptacles? trying to ID part(s) for you.

I can't really tell because I can't fit my gigantic melon in there to see without further destruction. May have to resort to using my phone as a recorder to see...

It looks like some type of bulkhead. Maybe so they didn't have to run too long of a hose?

HaHa!....Send that Monkey with the cigarette up in there

Here are the cooling system diagrams...if you can determine if it is any of these parts I can get the part numbers.

...Or it could be a body/frame part??
