Water Pump Nipple, Heater Hose, and Passenger Head Fitting

[96GT226410]

I have a 95 Mark VIII engine that I'm getting ready to drop into my 98 Cobra and I know the Mark VIII water pump nipple won't work with my 98 Cobra intake manifold and the heater hose won't line up correctly. I also have to replace the fitting for the heater core hose that bolts onto the back of the passenger side head. I can't find any of these parts new. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

I was able to get the original water pump nipple out of my 98 Cobra. I'm going to sandblast it and replace the O-rings and install it in thee 95 Mark VIII block. My original heater tube is in need of a little repair and after that I should be able to use that as well. I still have to find a new fitting for the heater hose at the back of the head.
