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.
