heater hose inlet leak
this is my first leak of this kind so any advice is greatly appreciated!
2009 ram hemi. miles" 104K
as title says my inlet hose is leaking at the pump. is this a press in item or is it held in by a bolt etc???
is the o-ring a specific size or do i just get an asst box and match as close as possible? dealer specific part?
is there a proper procedure to replace it?
thank you!

Just a quick question, are you both sure it is the hose and not the water pump itself? From what I can remember, there is a weep hole on the pump that indicates a bad impeller. Replace the hose, pretty cheap and see if it truly the hose and not the pump.
