2002 f150 4.2l coolant leak around the 90 degree pipe on top of intake. Bought a new pipe and in process of replacing it. Replacing water pump and thermostat at same time. While removing a heater hose I discovered the metal pipe that comes out of intake horizontally pointing towards radiator is bad.This pipe is very close to the 90 degree pipe. Well how is that one held in. Is it threaded or a press fit. Also I can't find a part number for it.

It's pressed in with sealant. If you can't buy a replacement, you can probably tap it to 3/8 pipe and use a screw in nipple.
