It's hard to see words. A picture paints a thousand words. First step of fixing is describing the problem well. Let is see a POSING thermostat.

Well best thing is to change the water pump on your 5.3 chevy motor.

But seriously can you give us a better detailed description of what your working with and exactly what your trying to address. Often times if you can take a pic with your smart phone then edit it to draw or circle the leak before you post it. We can probably give you some solid advice.

Buy a service manual, learn how to read, learn how to write, learn how to follow directions, learn how to problem solve. Achieve self reliance.

You will have to tear down the front of the engine following the steps in the service manual. At that point you will have answered all of these badly posed questions on your own. If not; report back here.

What kind of bolts should you use? Should I use Martensitic stainless steel type 410, or Austenitic stainless type 302/304, 303, 305, or zinc or galvanized steel or aluminum bolts?

Thanks!
Zac
