Coolant End Tank/Stat Housing Removal?

[Slam Wagon]

Whats the question? How to get the read pipe off? Try rotating the unit towards the back of the engine, thats sort of what i did and it just popped off. I dont really remember as it came apart so easily.

As for the gasket just give them a call, they will tell you. I got mine in with a full head set so i assume its not a dealer only thing.
