Yes, there is a weep hole near the bearing on the water pump. When the seal goes bad, or when the bearing has to much play it in, it will start leaking fluid there.

I assume you want to change out the water pump and would like to know if you can do it without draining the radiator. You will lose approximately all the coolant in the radiator reservoir when you remove the radiator hose from the water pump. If the coolant is in good, clean condition, it might be wise to drain the radiator into a container and re-use the coolant.
