Hi i wonder if someone could please help.

I think i know where its at fault but i'm not sure what to do next lol

Here is the leak







The coolant dribbles down the pipe and is around the lip at first i thought it was a cracked pipe but now i'm starting to think its the gasket but im not sure which one it is and how easy is it to replace?

Any advice is appreciated.

Ahh so its not that hard a job then?

so is it the water pump gasket?

had a closer look today and just saw a couple of hex bolts and socket caps there so is it don't look too hard. is there anything to watch out for when taking it off?

Thanks so far?

I've come to the conclusion it might not be the gasket. checked the service history (ive only had it for 1000+ miles) and it was changed not too long ago (allegedly) ... so i had another look and then noticed this



Its leaking from a hole?? you should be able to see it in the center of the pic!


im guessing its not ment to be like this LMAO!

is there a bolt or fasteners missing??


Regards
