I'm in the midst of replacing all of the hoses, seals etc on my 87 760GLE. I had planned on making a pre-emptive strike at the heater core but a leak in the vicinity of the water pump has changed all that.
Anyway while replacing the waterpump, and myriad of hoses attaching it, I have found that a metal supply (or return) pipe that is unsecured. This is the one running from the water pump, under the intake manifold and back to the heater and (I presume) the oil cooler. There is a tab that has been bent back and it looks like it should attach to a bolt nearby (the 'y-pipe' that is also under the manifold. I think i can re-attach this thing but am wondering if there is another place it is secured. I don't really want to be driving around with this thing flopping around.
