sure helps to have a cooling system pressure tester, or some way to apply some pressure.........15psi max or so, to your cooling system. than can help pin point the actual leak. the water pump is right above there of course...........and it's kinda packed in that area - hard to tell where it's really coming from sometimes - like there's 6 to 8 possible spots in that area. you probably have it figured out by now anyway !
