Hi,
Folk I noticed a small coolant leak from what I think is the water pump side on the right side where the coolant hose/thermometer housing sit. You can clearly see the pink dried coolant.. I did do my Timing belt only a 1000 miles ago. And did notice filling up the coolant with at least half a gallon. Thinking it may have just needed a burp I thought nothing of it. But now that I see this leak. I wonder if this cause my coolant leaking issues. What would be the main places for coolant leak after timing belt install? BTW I have no major indication of coolant leak.. just spotted this one as you see in the pictures.
Also how would I fix this? it is as easy as draining the coolant removing this section out? looks like it has some screws holding it in with FIPG gasket on it. I dont recall the need to redo this while doing the Timing belt.. so I didnt so anything to this section.
FYI below is NOT MY LC.. just giving you an idea of where I found the leak.
