Do you know this part?

Hello all,
Do you know this part? I have water spraying out the bottom. (The bottom being the top of the photo). The part I'm looking at here is black and has all my water lines connected. It's cracked open on the bottom and needs replaced. Please help. This is on a Oldsmobile 455 big block with a Berkeley jet drive. The motor is running great along with the jet drive. I just need to fix this leak. Thanks.

Ayuh,..... It appears to be a water distribution manifold,.....

Pull it out, 'n solder or braze it to close the crack,....

It appears to be brass, so no problem fixin' it,.....

This was actually an oil cooler. I was able to find one on Ebay for $85 and just replaced the part.
