yes the water pump is on the drivers side of car,if the water pump is leaking you will see water dripping from front of engine it is more than likely the water pump.if you remove the timing belt covers you will be able to see for sure if it is pump,thermostat housing,coolant rail,inlet gasket and head gasket are all prone to leaking,best to get a pressure test done to check for any other leaks
