Default help coolant leak!

My 03 3.0 is leaking around the metal tube located at the top of block right under fuel rail. It looks like it is a pressed in part but I cannot locate a replacement part for it. Can or is this removable? Is this a common issue that has a fix or replacement part? Please help I need this vehicle

I have not called yet any idea what it would be called and how it comes out? I tried with vice grips (not to hard) but it didn't budge at all. It's hard to believe it just stays in there no bolts or threads holding it in.
