front of the engine mate.
the edge can be seen at the passy side if you lift the seat. the problem is that the lower edge is hidden by the crankshaft pulley, so when it leaks out of the (telltale) hole at the 6 oclock position it goes undetected.
you need a dentist angle head mirror to see it.

OK,if you stop the video at the front of the engine,the water pump(aluminium coloured) is above the crankshaft pulley(the big black thing at the bottom of the pic)It shows the water pump without the belts or pulley.
Good Luck..
