Hello, You cannot see it because it is behind the timing cover. The water pump is run by the timing belt. So, I would reccomend replacing all timing components along with the water pump.

fixing the waterpump would that stop all the water leaking there is no noise when the car is running so could the water pump be broke that cause water to flow out everywhere

Can you tell about were the coolant is leaking from... ex: center front of engine, drivers side about the wheel area on engine etc.

If looks like leaking from front center of engine then most likely it is the water pump and replacing it would fix the leak.

However, if not leaking from the front of engine and is leaking on one side or the other it could be a Freeze Plug. Or possibly a Head Gasket or even the Intake Manifold Gasket.
