Question about Edelbrock RPM Airgap - thermostat housing leak

Well I keep going out in the garage and finding a puddle of antifreeze in my thermostat housing, and a big puddle in the valley of the airgap manifold. Manifold is new, thermostat and housing are new, put it together with permatex ultra gray.

I think its seeping up around the threads of the bolts, but cant remember from when I put it together. Do the bolt holes go clear through into the water jacket? Anybody have one on the bench they could look at?

Mine do not go through.
Run a file over the housing when you get it off and make sure its flat and don't over tighten it.
