Don’t know the answer but here’s an image of the thermostat removal and replacement procedure from the 2004-2005 Nissan Altima factory service repair manual (scroll down to Engine Cooling System) which may be of some help.

You mentioned gaskets but are the o-rings there and OK as well? Just a thought.

could be seals or maybe the thermostat is faulty, when and where is it leaking? is it leaking out the housing or where the housing attaches to pipes? is it leaking all the time, with the engine off and cold is it still leaking?
