Where do I get the aluminium thermostat housing for 07 4.0 ?

Is this the right part ?

NEW THERMOSTAT ALUMINUM HOUSING KIT 1 PLUG FOR 02-11 FORD 4.0L SOHC | eBay

Ours has 1 sensor, and the other hole has a plug with a wire clip.

And it's leaking of course

I think this is the one that has been mentioned on here. Its also more expensive
2002-2010 Explorer Metal Thermostat Housing (SA2)
Either one should work though.

The Simmons is way overpriced IMO

This is the one I purchased a few months ago and it is working perfectly

And doesn’t seal properly...Simmons says don’t need any rtv just install as is. I did just that to the torque he suggested and it leaked like a sieve our the t-stat cover. I took it off dried off the paper gasket and used aircraft loctite gasket dressing and it held for a few weeks..now it’s weeping up one of the bolts and out. Looks like RTV will be my last resort. I wouldn’t mind the high price if it actually worked properly but it is kind of annoying paying that much and it doesn’t seal properly.
