Nick, A small amount of silicone wouldn't hurt around the gasket and in the grove where the o ring sits.

Thoughts please ... I found the leak (Trying to be optimistic that there is only one). It is leaking between the thermostat cover and base. The gasket is installed first and then the thermostat in the correct orientation. The thermostat and gasket/ring was replaced a couple years ago and the gasket appears OK. The gasket sits a little loose in the hole and has done so since day 1. Before I button this up, are there any thoughts.
