That is what I'm finding out.  But---I may not have a choice unless someone has 
a NOS one lying around they want to sell---which isn't likely.

Cue the discussion about water pump brands. AFAIK, the usual suspects all sell 
County brand WPs which are, well, suspect. 

Michael Salter sells kits, but not all of us have the proper tools and skills 
(IIRC a hydraulic press is required) . Maybe we can talk Michael into starting 
a rebuilding service???

This car is VERY frequently driven---and at least 3 times a week-----usually a 
75 to 100 mile round trip when driven. The last long ride was when I discivered 
the leak---and--it was after that drive that I replaced all the gaskets. 

I have now concluded that is is the WP since the last time I did observe 
coolent coming from the bottom opening of the pump----------also---another 
piece of info---the leak didn't start right after starting the engine--it would 
start about 5 of 10 minutes after being started and getting a little 
temp/prfessure.
