Sounds like the water pump alright based on location.
Being someone who has experienced the joys of coolant loss from varios parts, I'd suggest replacing all your hoses and thermostat at the same time. If the pump is going, there's a chance the hoses are getting old - ever seen how fast a raddiator can drain with a pinprick hole in a heater hose etc? Damn fast |

Its your water pump. It's located under the timing belt cover. You better get that repaired before your t/blet snaps from the coolant. Replace your belts, water pump, & timing belt when you have the job done. @ my dealer we charge $450. $365 for timing belt only, so it's worth it to do the whole job while your in that area
