Coolant Leak: VT750C2 Shadow 1999

My precious bike has sprung a leak from a short aluminium pipe between the two cylinder heads, the pipe has clips on each end.
I´m not sure exactly what the issue is, ie: cracked degraded seals or stuffed gasket of some kind??? What I want to know is can I fix it myself as I am pretty broke, and is it difficult to do?
I have experience with servicing cars and such but I am new to bikes.
Is the part terribly expensive, are there non factory parts that are available to do the job.
