Default Fittings & Pulleys

I'm about to remove my radiator from my 81. I got everything out but the bottom transmission line. Its totally rotted in place. I'm going to cut the rubber hose in half so I can remove the radiator from the car. Does anyone know if these fittings are replsaceable? Its just a small piece of pipe attached to a rubber hose and this is screwed into the radiator. Also, I'm replacing the water pump. I got the water pump off and could not get the pulleys off. I put the gear puller on them and one came off, the other stayed on. Finally got them off but am not sure they are supposed to come apart. They seem like 2 different pulleys, is this possible. Sorry this is so long.

The pulleys do come apart. If I remember correctly, the double one goes on first, and then the single. I beleive the single was added for the air pump. Can't help with the transmission question.
