On the top radiator hose next to the top hose be timing belt cover. Not to bad to put on if you have some swivel sockets. It may be easier to remove the timing belt cover to get better access to clean the old gasket off.

Here is a photo of the thermostat housing on the Ford 2.3 L : http://www.rockauto.com/ref/SPI/FourSeasonsDetail.html?/FourSeasons/84888.jpg
It looks like it connects to the upper radiator hose and another coolant hose.

Usually in the top hose at the cylinder head.
