You can do what my son's do.
They call and say: "Hey dad, Can you stop by the junk yard a pick me up a water neck?"

 

the water neck is fine its the seal around it thats bad

 

lol .... i would if i had a dad

 

I don’t think a parts store would stock it, …but I guess you could cut one out of gasket paper (which you can buy at the parts store).

Currently, mine is sealed with only RTV. It's holding fine.

 

Is this the water neck to pump housing seal?
That is an O-ring.

The O-ring could be mis fit or out of its groove.
Loose bolts.
Broken bolt tab.

The RTV (silicone sealant) mentioned above is good for all but the exhaust seals.
