That picture is of a reverse-flow cooling system using an electric pump. The coolant goes in the head at both back and front, and comes out at the bottom of the block.

You can fit a stock water outlet on that position, being aware of course that different ones have the outlet at different angles. The one pictured is not from a Miata (judging by the placement of the CLT sensor thread) however I imagine that you could find out by asking in the thread in which this is being discussed.

pretty much any mazda housing will work. BEGi sells something similar as well.
