If its not leaking its not broke. when it leaks on to your crank pulley replace it.

I just replaced my gaskets on mine at 73,000, and the pump itself looks fine. No cooling issues or anything, apparently some robot at the factory installed my gasket wrong. :shrugs:
I don't see any reason to replace it until you start having problems, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I am having sort of the same problem as you with the leak but I don't see the so called weeping hole and looked like the additive that I added to the coolant reservoir when I flushed the radiator. It seemed to be where it mounts to the block but I don't know now since I can't see it leaking anymore even with an inspection mirror. So my big question to you is, did you ever figure out where your leak was? Thanks.
Holy thread revival, back from the DEAD!!!!
HAHA, But now that its back. I just replaced my pump yesterday with a new one from autozone. Not sure if it was the original pump but I'm at 166k so I highly doubt that its original.
