Thermostat is 1 year old. Water pump is 95' stock. Radiator is 3 months old. I checked them out including the Heater fluid hose to my firewall. None are leaking... The leak is coming from the right side of the engine area near my water pump, thermostat area. Underneath looks like its dripping down, spilling downward on Oil tank till hits the ground. Near that right side area. I have to refill the radiator every 3 days or else will over heat! Please help, thanks...

Actually the drip should be comming off the ac compressor front side of the engine. That is where the water pump leaks to. A word of caution the cam chain tensioner needs to be slackened and removed to get the water pump out a technician must remove the two black covers way down the timing chain case. The engine will make terrible noises when started up after the pump is replaced. Because your engine has early type chain tensioner I would replace the tensioner also so the chain will tighten up properly.

Buy some radweld, chuck it in the radiator tank.
Problem solved.
