RX SE7EN is on a distinguished road
I had this problem as well. I had purchased a rebuilt engine (it hadn't been started since its rebuild). I kept getting air pockets in my coolant system causing it to overheat, then I found that it was leaking by the bellhousing.

I removed the transmission, and found that all of the tension bolt seals/washers had been reused. I removed 1 at a a time, took the seal off, slathered a ton of "Great Stuff" sealant on it, and torqued it back down to spec. It's been fine for 3 years now.
