"It's a little tough from that angle to see exactly what you have circled, but, assuming you do not mean the head itself, at that location you should have the thermostat cover.

It will be held on by 4 bolts, does have a gasket under the cover and then under that is the thermostat.

The cover is still available from any Merc dealer for under 20 bucks. The gasket is discontinued, but you can fashion your own with a "make your own gasket kit" from any auto supply place...."
