yep...housing gasket and thermostat.....thought the leak was from there...but there is a small hole under the housing....the car ran hot the other night because of a wire shortage(harness in the pulley)got the wires right now the hole leaks.....and it seems to be gurgling from under the plenum......is this hole a relief for a bad water pump?the pump is working fine ....so what could it be?
