The 1.4 Turbo (all Gen 1) on the Cruze has the thermostat on the passenger side, attached to the water pump. There's a water outlet on the driver's side and that one has the water temp sensor. Either housing can crack and when it does, you can get a very big coolant leak. The water pump seals can also fail and when that goes, you do get a leak but it's going to be slower. As far as the "butterfly thing" style clamp, there's a tool for that. I didn't have one when I changed my water pump. Just search for "flexible hose clamp pliers" and you'll see a number of places that sell them. The style with a cable is going to be easiest to work with as it'll get into places other pliers can't easily reach. The 1.8 engine is non-turbo and won't have the same layout. If your water pump is bad, that's a much more involved process. Also, the bolts are E10 or E12, not "standard" or "metric" sized, they're an external Torx type. Though the wrench used in this video will work, but it's not ideal.

How did you know your sensor was bad? Was your temperature gauge getting high very shortly into your drive, then saying "AC off due to high engine Temp"? Mine will say that then after another minute the gauge will rise again to max and say "Engine overheated-Idle engine". But then it will return back to being less than halfway on the gauge.
