Upper water pipe? The steam vent that goes from head to head? If so, two little hex bolts on each head hold the fittings down.

Sorry, should have been clearer...the upper pipe to water pump. Thanks
IS that the one going to your heater core.

Im pretty sure they are pressed in, why do you want to do to it and why?
i turned mine to clear a re-located a/c compressor. i just used a propane torch to heat the aluminum. it got very loose, would have pulled out easily. id imagine you could heat back up to put back in. you can barely see it in this pic, its pointed straight forward now

If nothing else, maybe cut and bead roll the existing pipe the use a mandrel bent pipe connect with hose and clamps. Unless you're going for the clean look of a well made turnaround pipe
