mk1 1.4 pipe from pump goes to..what?

Hello. I had some problem with my clio, and i had to change all the coolant hoses. When i stripped down everything, i found out:
1. Pipe that goes from the water pump, has a half an inch cap on one of the lower ends, the other goes to the radiator, and one goes to the intake. Where does the sealed one go?
2. Where that pipe mounts, the original hole thats the same that holds the dipstick, doesn't fit for me. When i get it in and tighten it with that hole, a hose pushes the fan blocking it, thus the fan doesnt spin...

What can i do? I can post pictures if i wasn't clear.. thanks!

As your car is manual transmission , the other blanked of pipe would have gone to the auto cooler .
That's from memory

That's the wrong pipe for your engine .
I can see that the small sized outlet is up against the head / block and it's not at the correct angle for the existing hoses .

Yeah i was wondering that. But every picture i saw of the 1.4 engine has the same pipe, at least it looks like the same one.
