Coolant Leak

I have a slight coolant leak on the water pump inlet. Is there a gasket, or an O ring in there?

There are o-rings on the inlet and outlet of the waterpump .

Thanks. I guess while I have it apart I should replace the hoses and belt. Looks like all the original stuff on there yet.

i would change your coolant and put a filter on too.

Get the top hose that goes around the serp. belt instead of through it .

I was looking at putting a coolant filter on it. and yes defiantly, I will get the top hose that goes around the belt...
