I just replaced the water pump and serpentine belt now when I start the car I get a strange noise, it sounds almost like a clicking noise near the water pump and it only does it for a moment. Could a pulley be loose or is the waterpump I put in bad? Somebody please help.

This happens whent he serpentine belt gets coolant on it, which should dry up if you keep running the engine, let me know.
