Does the liquid cpu cooler plug in the cpu fan header or pump fan header?

Edit: Actually the piece that sticks to the CPU has a cable itself as well. Manual is saying it plugs into the CPU fan header. But isn't this this the pump?

The cooler has 3 fans. If I were to buy 3 more pwm fans to use a push / pull method, do all 6 fans plug into one header with a hub? Or what's the setup for this?

you plug the 4 pin PWM cable for the AIO pump/ CPU block in the the CPU header and the 4pin connection for the fan/ rad go into any fan port. This is how I have my corsair h60 connected to my asrock ab350m pro4. Barely ever hear it running unless Im stress testing and I sit at an average 25*C and max unloads has been 72*C and that is with an OC of my R5 1600x @ 3900- 4095MHz @ 1.25v

Ive never seen a pump fan header port. maybe its the same with cpu header. Generally the pump connects to the cpu header and the radiator fans to sysfan1,2 etc. If the ports are 4-pin even better
