Man, I think its obvious what you need to do, but Ill tell you anyway.
Try the cheap way if you like by first taking the waterpump off and re-applying a new seal on it.
Now what I would do is, put a new waterpump and seal on it.

time for a new water pump. The leak that you have got is from the tell tale hole it more or lesstells you when it is rooted, for a real dodgey you could silcon the hole up might get you a day or so but it's real dodgy
