i got outside this morning and noticed a puddle of coolant forming beneath my car....noticed it was dripping off the crank pulley area so figured its the water pump....is there anyway to tell if is just the gasket or? ill most likely be getting a new one anyone but i just wanna know....the weep hole on the top isnt leaky at all so i guess thats a good thing but the exact location of the leak i cant see cause of all the shit in the way haha

There are at least three possibilities in that area. 1. the water pump 2. the water pump gasket 3. the front cover gasket. This is assuming it is not leaking from above the pump e.g. a bypass hose. If none of the gaskets have been disturbed, I would suspect it is the water pump seal that is leaking.
