My iCloud email and Apple ID are different email addresses and I need to reset the icloud email password only. Any ideas on how to do that?

Good afternoon Azwar76,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If I understand your question, you need to change the password to your iCloud email account which ends in @icloud.com.
You state that your iCloud email address and your Apple ID are different email addresses. However, they would be sharing the same password.* Here is how you can confirm this:
* The exception to this would be if you are using two different Apple ID accounts, one for iTunes and one for iCloud.

- Go to www.icloud.com from your computer.
- Type your Apple ID email address and password.
- You should see your account.
- Sign out of your account.
- Now type in your address ending in @icloud.com
- Use the same password that you just entered for your Apple ID.
- If the same account opens then that confirms the two email addresses are tied to each other.
* The exception to this would be if you are using two different Apple ID accounts, one for iTunes and one for iCloud.
