Hi, my gf's sei sporting has had a coolant leak for a little while. It looses quite a lot, quite quickly leaving a patch under the car overnight. I got under there and took off the splash guards, etc to see where the leak was coming from. Not much with engine off, but when engine is running there is a constant drip from above the oil filter.
I know the water pump is above this, but is there anything else that could be causing the leak around that area?
The car has done about 50k so could be the water pump failed. If it was leaking though, could it just be the seal to the block?
If it were the water pump, how much should I expect to pay for a pump and cam belt?

The water pump tends to leak over the engine position sensor which is in front of the oil filter.

PartCo do water pumps for £15 and a belt is about the same price too. Water pumps are supposed to have dynamic seals - ie they seal best whilst the engine is running but in reality once they start leaking they pretty much leak all of the time.

OK cheers, looked to be a constant drip from the water pump area, and slight drip with engine not running. I think I'll buy a pump and belt and change them, but is there anything else in that area that it could be like a core plug?

Has been stalling after starting sometimes so if the water is dripping on crank position sensor that could be the reason.
