Noisy Water Pump VT - Strange

[tone]

Hey EveryBody ... Had a noisy water pump, changed it at the same time I changed the Lower Inlet Manifold Gasket (getting oil in the coolant). The New pump is noisy too! I thought I had isolated the noise to the water pump when I started the car one morning and noticed no noise .. also noticed a hose had split and droped all the coolant on the ground.

Water pump is still noisy (squeeking) and although the temp gauge is normal it feels like she's overheating a little.

Would love your thoughts

Cheers

could be the pulley, try take the drive belt off and give it a spin see if it makes noise.
