depends on the car. Put a wrench on it and turn both ways till you see some movement. You can't really break anything but it shouldn't be difficult to turn at all even with the tension from the belt. I would think if the belt runs on top of the pulley it would turn CCW and if it runs below the buttom probably clockwise would release the tension.

Is a 2000 s-10 4.3litre water pump standard or reverse rotation?
The water pump would be a standard rotation. The serpentine belt moves clockwise on the model truck which would make it standard not reverse. With a serpentine belt system like the one in the 2000 S10 4.3, any pulley that is grooved turns clockwise. Any pulley that is smooth turns counterclockwise. The water pump pulley on that S10 is smooth and turns CCW.

Sounds like water pump needs replacing The main pulley is near the top of the engine. The water pump is toward the front of the engine. It is possible that water appears to be leaking from this pulley, but there is a manifold gasket right above it. Double check to find exactly where the water is exiting the engine block. My first hunch is a leaking gasket.
