Default Coolant Resevoir

Hi all,
Can somebody please help me out here? Does this tank come as 1 piece or is there 2 parts with a seal inbetween? I don't know if it's my rubber hose fitting leaking and dribbling down to the seam area or if it's the seam itself. If the system is over-filled, could that cause pressure to split the seam or make it leak? Also, where can I get a new resevoir if I need one thanks

Steve

It's 1 piece. I replaced mine recently due to it leaking at the hose connection near the bottom. Gmpartshouse for about $75 I think....
