He will have to do some disassembly, I think, to get to the cooling unit.
On my G5, it wasn't obvious just opening it.

If you're afraid about the LCS, you could go for an air cooled G5.
(you can use MacTracker to know which is which)

I think the OP meant "Quad core G5"... :-)
(it was the last G5 model, the Late 2005, with dual core processors: the top
model had two dual core 2.5 GHz processors, hence the "quad core")

Regarding the pumps, I think the Delphi was single pump, while the Panasonic
dual pump (and this regardless of G5 model; I mean, AFAIK there was no
direct correlation between G5 model and brand of LCS).
But John Carmonne knows much more about this than me.
