That's the upper radiator hose connection on the timing cover. Will have to check on mine but don't think its threaded...I'll pop the hood on my '00 in a few and get back to you...

Here you go. You might be able to unscrew it but mine came attached to the timing cover

Don't over-tighten it, might crack the housing it goes into.... then you have a real problem.
