Did the repair myself turns out it wasn't the water pump it appears to be leaking out fast from the part the radiator hose connects to which connects to motor. I hope its not the intake manifold it's coming down the head so not the head pretty sure it's the gasket between the hose manifold and engine. Any input would help is this a possibility

I had the same problem turns out the rubber O ring on the pipe going into the water manifold was bad, new Rubber O ring fixed the issue. Four bolts hold water manifold in place notice the smaller hole a pipe with rubber O ring goes in there.

Hey Evan! I think this is what I'm dealing with as well! What O-Ring did you use?!? Where can I get one?

In a twenty year old car, coolant leaking near the front of the engine could be a water pump problem, eroded radiator hose or loose connections, worn out plastic or metal radiator, or a damaged intake manifold gasket.
