Hello Jos,
thanks a lot for the detailed photos of the flange from the inside.

As I understand it, is it a flat O-ring located under the flange bolts? Or is there no o-ring at all?
Is there also a second seal on the inside diameter of the flange?

Is the dirty part caused by coolant? I thought the cooling was only in the oval holes on the outer perimeter.

The dirt was from the burned wires. (photo)
If the coolant is leaking from the outside you can better let the lith on the motor.
The real 'seal' is the blue Locktight. When you put the lith back on the motor you have to seal it at the edge between the coolant area and the motor.

Thank you for the detailed photos of the disassembly of the Parker engine, it is very beneficial for me to see it inside. Do you happen to have a photo of the location of the temperature sensor?

BTW: how did you manage to burn the engine inside? Did it overheat due to a lack of coolant or did you overload it with a high current?

When I think of HadesOmega's coolant leak, I wonder if this version is possible:
Coolant began to leak under the flange bolt located above the power cables. There is a hole in the flange for the power cables and it seems to me to be the weakest point for a perfect seal. The liquid could easily flow down, where it remained in the lowest place of the plastic cover. What do you think?

Now, perhaps, I have finally understood how the motor flange is sealed to the body. I was a little confused before because I was studying an exploded 3D model, but it was a previous generation Brammo Empulse R 2013 engine with a "gold" flange. There it was solved a little differently and there really were rubber o-rings.
