Back in 2011 when my cam belt was done i think we used an after marker water pump, this had a paper gasket (looking at my photos i might have used blue hylomar with it too) and has been leaking at least since mot in January when it was noticed dripping underneath.
pump was removed today and is in good condition,
so my advice would be if fitting a new pump if it hasn't got oem type metal gasket then go buy and oem gasket.
