It is water cooled, unless you are pumping hot water which is unlikely I would have thought.I'd go for some epoxy, as the ardvark has said JB weld, as the operating temperature of the water pump may be near the max operating temperature of standard epoxy resins.

looks to be the wrong size and squeezed downThose hoses don't look too happy while you are at it!

I've been impressed with JB Weld over the years. No idea what the max rated temperature is but I once had an air-cooled engine with stripped exhaust collar threads. Proper fix would have been a helicoil but I lived in the middle of nowhere and needed it for work the day after. Two pieces of studding glued in with JB Weld, wasn't expecting it to last more than the first day but it was still OK a year later.
More recently I used it to fix a cartridge heater element into an ally block for a test rig at work, it got a bit smelly once it was up past 200C but it still held.
