86 golf diesel coolant issue

Replaced all hoses and water pump. Getting a leak from the plastic part connected to the water pump. L -shaped two bolts. What is that part called? Also, other the O ring, How can I seal that part. This is where the leak is. Thanks

I'm thinking it's a water outlet part. Any reason to buy one that is not plastic? Please recommend a on-line parts dealer. I want the best part.

Probably called the Thermostat Cover. Plastic is what is commonly found and they do crack sometimes. Get that new O ring to go with it. You might even want a new thermostat too since it will come out with the coolant. Be careful!
