lightly used after market coolant flange & hose, OEM used coolant flange and hose missing a clip
I was unable to get the after market flange to mate with the return coolant line without leaking.
I was unable to get the after market hose to mate with the used coolant flange without leaking.
I ended up buying OEM from dealer when the only real problem was the O ring on the head to coolant flange.
It is a bit tricky to hook things up since there are three points of attachment.   Start by connecting the coolant flange to the head tight enough to hold the o ring in place, attach the return coolant line and tighten it and then then the flange to head.
Attach heater line last.   The heater hose has its own built in O ring.   Test for leaks by filling with water.   Good luck
