Hey guys, cheers for the replies. Ended up being the gasket, the housing was in surprisingly good condition. Cleaning the surfaces up took the longest, razor blade and some sandpaper and a bit of elbow grease got them nice though. Replaced the thermostat whilst I was there. Took a while to bleed as it always does, but made it to Lake Tyers and back with no issues. Took twice as long as it should have as I put it back together but then realized I had both the new and old thermostats sitting on top of the radiator. Oops.

I have no doubt you're not the "Lone Ranger" on that issue.
