    I wouldn't worry too much about that. It could slowly drip for two years before it becomes enough to make ya want to put a new one on.

    First make sure it's not a loose clamp on the hose coming out of the water pump. If it's actually the water pump, it will be dropping from the weephole in the bottom of it.
