I may have your best answer. I had this same problem this week. I called two different auto parts stores - they had the same question for me, and the same answer for the solution - which has worked. Check this out -
They asked - is you water outlet chrome? I said - why yes it is.
They said it's warped.
I said - it has only 4000 miles on the new engine.
They said - no mater - it's warped.
In disbelief, I removed it and put it on the counter - yep warped.
I installed a plain old cast iron water outlet - and all is fine.
Don't bother with fancy gaskets, or messy glue/sealer - just get a plain cast iron water outlet (paint it if you want) and problem solved - forever.
