Thermostat housing blew after coolant leaking and car overheating? Do I need to replace housing or new water pump or both?

Hi:
Can you take a picture of the part you are referring to? The thermostat housing and water pump are not physically connected, so I'm a bit confused. Also, the Chrysler 200 wasn't offered in 2003. Please confirm year or model.
I attached a pic of the thermostat housing for a 2013 just in case that is what you meant. There is what is called a secondary thermostat which attaches to the water pump inlet tube. Is that what you are referring to
I will watch for your reply.
