Very hard to tell what I'm looking at. How about some more information or larger picture of the area? I'm assuming this is Right Hand Drive? It looks like a heater hose blew off, near as I can tell.

Looks like it to me. Looks like a piece of hose that's still on it. I think the corrugated is an upper rad hose protector. Looks like a wet plug wire also.

Yeah, that's looking down on the front pass side valve cover. He blew his heater hose.

It's unanimous then. You blew the return heater hose going to the water pump.

Correct. I also have a wet plug wire in that same location. I really need a new pipe to the water pump. I should have learned by now.

To @Fathur :
Don't just replace that one water hose, replace all of them, upper and lower radiator and heater core feed and return. If one has got that bad that it's burst, the others aren't far behind.

I think we are talking, but no one is listening........

I find it funny when someone comes for help, yet is MIA when the advice starts flowing.

Funny that. I answered his post 11 minutes after he posted it and he hasn't said a word since then. This is not Facebook, don't expect an instant answer!
