Default Please Help

CRX is an 86 hf , carbo , 1.5.
Water froze in the coolant lines but it still ran, so I put antifreeze in it and let it run. There were a lot of air bubbles as the stuff kept bubbling out. About 10 minutes later I look under the car and it is leaking the green from the back right corner (if u looking straight at the motor) Could it be the head gasket? I have not tried to start it since then. Also went to look how hard it would be to get the exhaust manifold and valve cover off and the manifold does not look like i am going to be able to get it off without jacking the motor up out of the car. Please help! My boyfriend won't help and I only have basic knowledge of the engine. I do have the Chilton's manuel and it's not helping all that much.
Thank You

Back right corner is where your water pump is located (well on all the 4-bangers that i know of..) could be a bad water pump..usally when the water pumps go bad they leak a little to let you know that something is wrong...

How do you suggest I get to the water pump and headgasket? I have a new waterpump and headgasket just incase it was either one of those. Just don't have the gasket for the water pump. Like from what I looked at in the book it is all very simple to get apart, however the bolts that hold the exhaust manifold on are absolutely unreachable. So do I have to take the whole motor out to do this?
Thanks
