IIRC your missing the metal tube that is the steel tube that goes around the back of the engine. Its it slides into the housing, and the last time I removed that, I used a little make a gasket to hold it in there, but IIRC there is a small Oring in there. check that out and make sure you dont put too much pressure on that water outlet, or it will crack.

Also, next time you need help tho, tell us the year, make, model, and engine size. This way it makes it alot easier to help ya. Goodluck!

No problem, hope you get it fixed. Also check that outlet for cracks, those things break all the time, and there pretty cheap too. Might want to swap it out since its cheap and easy enough.
