98 dx small coolant leak

Ok so my dx is leaking very slightly but you can see it on the block under where the upper radiator hose goes into the block. I see theres 2 bolts holding that housing in but i domt know if theres a gasket there if theres anything behind it im clueless. I know american cars this my first honda so im stumped and normally id just do it at say screw it but i dont wanna mess anything up. Any insight will help thank you. Mike

It's just a simple hose fitting bolted to the head. The unit is sealed with RTV Silicone. No gasket.
