The T-pipe that sit on themostat housing. they has broken off cleanly,
Where can i obtain this part?

If not, can i buy a threaded pipe where i can force-screw it in.
I can get plain pipe and get a plastic T pipe to connect 2 hoses instead of using this t-pipe.

i dont want to do cambelt removal because i am not condifent doing it. I rather leave that to mechanic who can do it.

Side note the cam belt is very easy even for a novice.

It looks like a press fit into the housing therefore you probably will have to buy a new housing which will come with the piece in it.

If you had the machinery to fit a new piece of pipe you probably would have done it by now. I don't mean that as an insult either - not many people have the required machinery! biggrin

i solved it. I am using barb fitting like this

I used die and tap to make new thread on housing, and screw that in.

I hope it works lol.
