I have a 2005 Mustang that started to leak coolant all over the place. I checked the hoses first and they look good, old but not leaking. It looks like I can trace the culprit to this metal bracket type thingy that has corroded. This is clamped onto passenger side of the engine and has several hoses attached to it.

Can anyone tell me what this is called? I am trying to search for a replacement but am not having any luck with the typical auto parts sites.

Thanks in advance.

Not exactly sure from your description. Can you post a pic?

Also, the thermostat housings are a common failure item on this model. So you may want to check that as well.

 

If it's a V6, it's probable the thermostat housing. There is an aftermarket metal housing to replace the plastic one.
