If its leaking just replace it. Like said above it only costs about $30. Just reuse all of the old bolts if they look good, just be sure to use some sealer on the bolts otherwise they may leak.
Its not hard at all, just time consuming, just go slow and take pics if you have to.
Yeah, I used thread locker blue on the water pump bolts, also went with FelPro gaskets and not the ones that come with the water pump. Get the bolt kit I mentioned earlier, it is only $5 dollars, they are the bolts that assemble the fan cluth/fan together wit the water pump.
