Please help!! Need a part identified

I just bought a 2005 Cobalt SS/SC. A piece on the back of the motor (toward drivers side) broke and is pouring out oil. I believe ots a plastic piece. The guy said its called a heater hole plug. Looked for it and cant find anything called that. Any idea of what else it could be called. He already took the piece out and doesnt have it anymore. I will try to get pics as soon as possible. Thank you

the thermostat housing should not pour out oil. are you sure its that? it should only contain coolant.

Here's a parts brake down. Find it and then contact Tom at CED (Crate Engine Depot) and he'll get the part for you.
