Replace the hose, it is cheap, and if it hasn't been done, then it's a good investment. If it still leaks, then you know it must be the water pump. Most water pumps only last about 100k before they start leaking (from my experiences) so if you haven't replaced that, then that is a cheap easy thing too.

If its leaking coolant around your water pump I'd be willing to bet big bucks your water pump is leaking from the weep hole. Look on the little hole on the bottom of the water pump. If it leaks your pump is shot. New water pumps arent too expensive.

Yea, I just had that same problem, my water pump was toast. I bought a new one for like $45. If your bolts aren't new or look really badI would really suggest buying some new ones, cause I tried to put my water pump back in last saturday, and a bolt snapped off in the block, now I got a whole lot more work to do instead of just the water pump because I used the old crappy corroded bolts. Someone gave me the part number to the bolts for autozone/schucks and it was 23744. The kit is only a set of 3 though. Do yourself a favor and buy new bolts for it so you don't have to go through what I have to now...
