Alright I think that’s the hose outlet. What does it go to? Any insight would be sweet. The bolt that’s in its spot on the water pump
I got is in super tight which makes me think it’s not supposed to be removed.

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. You should be able to get a replacement fitting though. Tell the parts store it's a heater hose fitting.
It should go to the heater core.
You can get that one out with some heat.

Dude at autozone told me I wouldn’t be able to find a replacement part for it. So actually super helpful answer thanks. I hit it with a torch a few times and it’s in there pretty tight but good to know I have a backup if I can’t get it out

I'll usually take a 7/8" box wrench and slide it over the hex part of this fitting and then smack the end of the wrench with a dead blow hammer to loosen it. A regular hammer will work too, but will probably damage your wrench.
Reuse it.
Guy at AutoZone is wrong. There are many vehicles that use them. Fortunately it isn't vehicle specific for that one. Look at the dorman stuff in AutoZone or google heater hose fitting or nipple. Pretty sure the heater hose is 5/8” which gives you the nipple size. The threads on the plug you pull out will give you the pipe thread size. Put Teflon tape or sealant on the threads.

You can just buy a new fitting at home depot, its just NPT to barb.
It is 1/2npt 5/8 hose barb

It should work fine
Everything’s looking good with the water pump.
My brake is super still. I’ll do the pump it up start the car trick and it’ll be normal then seize up and be super stiff. Do I just need to bleed the brakes? I don’t think there are any air bubbles but the fluid is decently dirty.

I'm glad that you figured this out. This is why I always recommend a vacuum gauge. It's nice to be able to keep an eye on the health of the vacuum pump.
