The thermostat has a rubber seal around it which seals the joint 😁

The seal is part of the thermostat
I've never had to replace one

you can buy the seal separately if you need one, sometimes they are missing (who knows why, its the 35year old junk parts lots i buy i guess) or the alloy has oxidised and the seal looks all pitted, new ones are not silly money.

Identical seals to those fitted to SAAB thermostats. Could be others as well.
But I have familiarity with Saab bits.. is all.
