My car over heated so i changed the radiator and the thermostat.. When I started my car antifreeze started leaking from above my thermostat where the engine casing is. I was wondering if I might of put the thermostat in backwards or if my engine casing can have sealant around it to hold in the antifreeze?

Remove the housing and make sure the t-stat is in straight. Let me know if you have other questions.
