I just sent you a PM and hope I am wrong.
I just had the problem described in the PM and can tell you, some people buy complete cars for the amount needed to fix it.

I looked at this "weep hole" which is from the pipe and I cant see any leaking there but i put my hand under water pump and there was some coolant water but not a lot. Is is possible that water pump leaking a little?
