It could be a waterpump. I haven't owned a b18, but if they have a coolant pipe, that can also leak (not common though).
To remove the waterpump, you need to take off the timing belt, so take off the valve cover, remove the upper timing belt cover, and the lower one, then release the tension on the belt, remove the belt, replace the pump, and belt, reinstall the belt and make sure to tension corectly. It would be alot easier if you had even a cheap manual, besides, they have pictures which help alot.
