Default Tapping waterpump heater hose outlets?

I'm running a vintage air kit with the billet bulkhead block. I want to tap the heater hose outlet and return on the waterpump to run AN fittings. Has any of you done this and what did you use? Any pics of the pump with this done would be kool.

1/2" & 3/8" NPT taps will do it...

Thank you both. Thats what i came up with. I wanted to see what others had done. I thought it would clean it up a bit more under the hood. My only concern was the down sizing of the port size. Any issues?

Thanks for the pic. That always is a help.
