fb water pump housing?
Where can i get one? i went to change my water pump today and realised the leak wasnt coming from the weep hole.. so i think i need to replace the housing.. or should i jsut replace the gasket? it only leaks when the car is warm and has been run a while... it starts under the housing and runs down following the seam where the front cover meets the housing.. or could this be the front cover leaking? its for an '82 i checked mazdatrix and they didnt have one that i saw

Agreed, replace the gasket. Something to keep in mind about that. There are 4 studs, 2 of them have a shim washer (the 2 that arent in the gasket area) that keep the housing parallel when you tighten the nuts. If they are missing the housing will be cocked and wont seal. In a pinch you could make shims out of gasket material. If you really do need a housing you can certainly get one from a fellow member. I know I have some on a shelf.
