Default Located my coolant leak... *Pics up*

Hey guys so I was just taking a look and located where my leak is at
I'm not familiar with all the names of the engine components so I've posted some pictures, hopefully you could help me out..
Would this just require a gasket replacement?

Engine hasn't been run in 24 hours, but a drop of either water or coolant falls every 10 seconds
In the last picture, you can see the leak dripping onto the bolts below.. No coolant coming out from around the bolts

that is the water pump. did u try to tighten the bolts a little to see if there tight. it looks like u could just replace the gasket although if your pulling the water pump it may be a good idea to replace the pump also if u can afford it.
