coolant leak
Ok guys I need some help. I looked under my car today and found coolant, yeah it sucks so I took some stuff off to see where it was coming from and its coming from the lower timing cover behind the crank pully. I JUST had my timing belt/tensioner stuff done but the only thing I can think it could be is the water pump/pump gasket... There is not suposed to be any fluid behind the lower cover I know but there is sealant on the lower cover where its leaking from. What else is there(if anything) underneath the lower cover that could be leaking coolant??
Any thoughts? I took a pic the best I could. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: coolant leak
you need a water pump by the looks of that. next time you do a timing belt, always replace the water pump since it is right there.

Re: coolant leak
It was done at the same time. I got a kit with everything and I would never have it all apart and not replace everything. I wonder if its just the seal but I think I will just buy an OEM pump and not have to worry about it.
