Wondering where the water pump is located? Water & coolant is leaking/spraying out near belt drives front right side of engine behind right headlight. Fan not coming on. Radiator & hoses all seem good. No obvious clunking noise to indicate a broken water pump. Broken seal somewhere? Car overheats rapidly now - after running cool with no issues for 17 yrs! Car is pretty much retired now but we want to look after it. It has been a champion!

This was also used in a ford fetiva it's behind timing belt so best bet here is to get a timing belt kit it will have a new belt tensioner, pulleys and water pump then change all of it.
