the T/B and the water pump are located on the opposite sides of the motor.
but, you said it runs and drips down, if it's running i'll take a guess and say it's your pump.

Let the motor sit until it cools. Clean off all the hoses and let it all dry. Plug the hole up where the waterpump allows water to past through with a small piece of tissue or a qtip. Start the motor and check for signs of leakage by cupping the hoses and checking the qtip.
