Replace the pipe, they can be bought from the dealership. When you're done don't forget to bleed the air from the system from the bleeder on the thermostat.

I've never replaced it but I mean it doesn't seem like it would be very hard to replace, just drain the coolant from the car, remove the hoses going to it and replace.

Yeah after looking in the helms it only is held to the block with a single bolt, looks like you have to remove the thermostat housing too. Seems pretty simple to replace.
