Hose question

Coolant leak in hose behind water pump. I can sort of see/feel it but not enough to replace it…Pulled water pump as I’m replacing both, but I still can’t get to the hose. Do I need to pull the intake manifold to get to the hose? If so, do I need any special tools? Never pulled an intake.

Year and engine?

1993 its a v8

So it’s the hose in the “V” behind the water pump in the pic below, below the intake manifold?

Yeah it’s literally right behind the water pump. I took the pump off but still can’t get to that Hose. You think I’ll need to pull the intake manifold? I heard its a pain.

Here’s a trick to replace that hose.
