Is it oil, or coolant, that is leaking?

the weep hole too until I took off the water pump. The oil comes from the
infamous #19 O-ring and runs down the outside of the water pump to the weep
hole. Note: when you go pick-up the #19 O-ring make sure to get a new O-ring
for the outflow (going up) coolant pipe. Waiting on mine to come in to finish
the job. Fingers crossed hoping/expecting that oil leak problem will have been
corrected.
