those are the heater outlets which i believe are the same thread as the 19mm plugs in a pinto block. in stead of connecting the two with a pipe why
not block them both off for a cleaner look?

Connect them together and also tee into the bottom of your header tank , which ideally should be mounted on the bulkhead above the engine level. This
allows a flow of water around the engine before the thermostat opens and avoids problems with airlocks and overheating, my car is done this way and
has had no cooling problems.
