Default V6 thermostat and elbow piece question

Fitted new thermostat to our 2.0 V6 75 today and noticed that the thermostat.housing wasn't as tight fitting to the block as the original. With the hose to the water pump fitted and clamped and the elbow piece fitted and the bolt tightened up it felt a little wobbly in the block
Also the elbow piece that goes into the block was a very very tight fit (the plastic not the seal) anyone had any issues or noticed this themselves?

Thanks
Rob
