2010 s coolant massive leak

Hey every one so I got home from the dinner this morning to notice small drips in the drive way. I got a 2010 s hatch. Opened the hood and I can see antifreeze under the inlet pipe on the driver side. It's got 67000 on it and I haven't seen any record of the thermostat housing being done. I'm sure it's that but what do you all think. So my question is what brand sound I get for the housing. Should I stick with the oem or Bremmen. I'm going to order the parts off Ecs

Electrical parts I stick with OEM, other stuff not as big a deal to me.
