fitting on Thermostat housing leak?

I am 99% sure the fitting that supplies coolant to the coolant bottle is leaking. I have attached a picture with an arrow pointing the the fitting in question. Under high load a small amount of coolant seems to be getting pushed around the nipple were it goes into the housing. Does anyone know if this is a press fitting or screwed in? I am trying to determine if I can fix it or if I need to just replace the housing..
