I'm running a serpentine system from a 91-92 camaro. It wasn't until after I ordered the water pump that I realized there was no inlet for the heater hose like on standard sbc water pumps. Anyone know of a water pump that will accomodate this and also work with this belt system?

The GM pump that comes in this system has an inlet for the heater hose, at least mine did.

The aftermarket pump that I put on my 92 truck which is the same serpentine setup also had the inlet.

Sounds like an issue with the manufacturer of the pump you bought.

The camaro water pump doesn't have a hose connection on the pump (guess it connected to the radiator or something). Get one from a 92 style chevy truck with a 305 like Chad suggested and it will work fine. BTW they are reverse rotation water pumps (can't use the standard SBC one).
