If you are talking about the small by-pass elbow on the water pump you unscrew it from the pump. If it is bad, new ones are available.

See if these photos come out large enough -

The nipple attaches to the WP with two cap screws. The tube on the thermostat housing is either cast into the housing or later design has a press-in tube.

Does that help?

The tube (nipple) for the heater hose unscrews. It is usually a bent tube.

My reading comprehension is dwaining ...

The heater outlet fitting (on the intake manifold) will screw out as Paul said -

If you are describing the heater return nipple on the pump casting itself, it also screws in/out (see 2nd photo).
