rarely do the seals go, normally the double wall that surrounds the seal, the inner one colapses causing a leak, gsf is your best bet for a replacement, they have better mounting for the thermostat housing clamp

he says water PUMP

normally if seal goes, replace the whole lot - its a sign the pump has been on ages, if they seize they snap the cambelt!  new pumps come with the seal

I bought one a couple of weeks backs from VW and they do come with the seal at a cost of £40.54 including VAT, but minus the £25 surcharge as I had a spare to give them when I picked it up.
