Is it possible to be leaking coolant from the timing chain cover?
What is your question?
I drive a 08 Buick lucerne V6 3800 series 3 engine, I have a small coolant leak around the timing chain cover. I was wondering if it could be leaking and if it is possible to do the job myself without having to disconnect any lower motor mounts. I was also curious about where the timing chain cover bolts were located and how many r there to remove to take off the cover to replace the gasket if needed
What makes this problem better or worse?
It gets worse when it's warm

Ah, good find.
The water pump is the center pulley at the top of the timing cover. (right above the crankshaft pulley)
Youtube it, I know there is a really in depth video on the replacement of the water pump.
