Oh yes, sorry. That's the main sealing ring.

I have a diesel stat here in bits. This photo shows the socket in the housing where the coolant pipe with the O-Ring (STC4540) fits.

thanks t cut

does this seal have a history of failure and is it easyto replace rather that the whole thermostat

it maybe that it is at this point that the coolant is leaking

thanks again for your help
