Default 2002 3.3 Grand Caravan Water pump metal pipe

I have just discovered that this pipe is rotten... and leaking..

As far as I am aware, I will need to split the water pump to replace this
metal pipe.

My question is - Will I have to take out the timing belt as per the older
models, or is this job not as horrifying as I think it is....

Anyone on here do this before???

Answered my own question...

You don't need to split the pump. It is a 1 hour job.

You only need the metal pipe. It is a O-ring compression fitting.

Mine is done.. it was an easy job.

FE's info.
