Help needed on a part number or part name

Fyi I found the part number. It's OEM GM part #24505049 and is available also from felpro in the photo below at auto zone
The reason I couldn't find it is because they call it a thermostat housing gasket

They may be for the heater hose fittings on the tensioner assembly.
Dang I would've bought the gm kit if I would've known that. I bought the felpro kit but had to buy the heater hose and rectangle gasket (coolant manifold gasket) separately and they aren't cheap.
 
That gasket is included in this kit.
Careful with those little bolts. I snapped one off on a 2001 Limited

If they come out easily with some penetrant oil and heat I'll do the gasket if not I'll return the thing to advanced auto for $7.99 when I need to get brake cleaner or aomething
 
By the way what do you recommend I use for the 4 corners? The kit came with a small tube of grey rtv or I have a tube of permatex ultra black on the shelf.
I can't remember if I used what came with the kit or if I used my own Permatex RTV. That was about 6 or 7 years ago and that car is long gone.
I used the Fel-Pro kit. It was probably cheaper than the GM kit at that time.
