TIAL 38mm wastegate help

snap a quick picture of it and post it if you want to best show us what you mean.
that valve seat ring is a VERY tight fit, be sure that it was not binding in the lower body because it was slightly cocked or something like that...which would not allow the wastegate to snug down to the flange.
maybe I am just misunderstanding your description but it sounds like there is a gap between the flange and the lower body of the gate. which there should not be when tightened down on the flange, the valve seat ring should push up into the lower body... and final result should leave the flange and lower body of the gate fitting flushed together.

yep, it sounded much worse in your description than whats pictured. if it is leaking, you will know pretty quickly... you will see carbon tracks on the flange.
