1990 Chrysler New Yorker 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 20000+ miles

I have a 1990 chrysler new yorker with a serious coolant leak, all water pours out as fast as I fill it, I have checked the hoses, and it seems to be coming from the water pump, I pluged the weep hole with my finger and then had a friend try to fill it to see if that was where the water was leaking from, but no luck, the water seems to be coming from between the housing and the pulley, is there anywhere else that it would leak from, am I missing something simple? And how much of a hassel is it to replace that water pump, thank you for your help

First you need to get the belt off. Usually loosening the tensioner will do this. The water pump sjould have around 5 bolts to it. Take them off replace gasket or use rtv blue silicone and replace with new pump. Hooke up belt and tighten tensioner.
