Default Bleed Hole

1)I believe my Waterpump is slowly leaking, not sure if it is from the bleed hole or the rubber seal. I would assume it is from the bleed hole?

2)I've read that this is a sign that the grease seal is compromised so instead of the coolant contaminating the bearing it leaks through the hole, is this correct?

3)Are the weep holes designed to keep the coolant from reaching the Timing Belt?... I would hope so.

4)It is a very slow leak, not sure if this is even normal.

Thanks

slow leak...it's more than likely coming from the bottom "weep" hole from the water pump.

replace the pump ASAP.
