If it’s coolant pump well, you know what happened to me.
Can check pump for play makes hell of a noise from bearings. Spin by hand you’ll feel it. Don’t drive it if you suspect pump it makes some damage.

If the pump bearings are dead then it will be wobbly, might need to take the tension off the belt first

OY !! you chucking nasturtions at my doris
tell you what though, this ere house arrest has it's good points, haven't seen a garden center in a month. So I've been fettling the bit of the top tailgate where the seal is held on, I say fettling, I should say faffing about, it's only taken me a week so far, mostly waiting for paint to dry - should have done it in the summer - but final coat was dry today so will finish tomorrow.Instead of spending time on Buttercup I have been playing with my wood lathe, making some newel posts to finish the stairs I made 10 years ago!! I picked up a nice piece of old oak from my odds and sods corner, feckin ell, it was like trying to turn a bit of stainless, I had to sharpen the chisels about 5 times before I finished that little bit. Should have known better, oak that was first worked 200 years ago gets quite hard.

Well guys, had some devastating news just now on my P38 from the specialists.
THE ENGINE IS MULLERED. Totally knackered and beyond economical repair. Im gutted.
The legal battle to get all my monies back now off the selling dealer will commence and he can have it back once i have removed all the many new bits and parts i fitted to it that is. Failing this it will be sold as is to the highest bidder as she must be worth a fair bit in parts alone or much more if someone puts another engine in her which i aint doing. Had enough now and its making me ill just thinking about it.
If anyone wishes to speak to me about it then please just PM me with a number to call and we can chat. I have just sorn'd it on dvla so as to not lose anymore money. I spent about £3000 on new bits too which are mostly fitted but some are not.
Thanks for all your help, support and banter guys but i am just too upset at the moment and need to have a big mug of tea and a good scream.
