    Default Probably the water pump?

    I have coolant leaking out the pulley on the water pump after the car runs, but doesnt leak when the car is running. Just making sure its the water pump and not something else before I fork out $70 for a new one when it could be a $2 seal or something. Did a search and couldnt really find anything about it coming out from the pulley bit.
    Its a 5.0L btw.
    Thanks.

    It was running pretty warm recently (1/2 way on 10 degree mornings), so i ended up flushing the radiator out pretty much started after that..so by what you said, would still need new pump?
