I have a mk1 ford focus zetec se 1.4 and the thermostat hosing is leaking.(its the one positioned at the left hand front of the engine with two pipes going to it)I have purchased a new housing but there didnt appear to be a gasket supplied with it.Could anyone tell me if this is normal and it is fitted without a gasket or if one should have been supplied.Thank you
