Does the timing cover leak antifreeze?

If you're getting anti-freeze on or around the timing chain cover it's probably coming from the water-pump. Check the bottom of the water pump shaft. There are "weep holes"at the bottom. If there are mineralization traces coming out of the weep holes you need a new water pump. No, it shouldn't. Yes, it can. A lot of timing chain covers have antifreeze passages and the gasket can fail.
