Can happen. Shaft seals could have gone out, or the gasket where it mounts to the block could be bad.

Seriously, it's behind the radiator fan. The fan clutch mounts to a pulley which mounts on the WP shaft, just follow that back and you'll see the WP itself. If there's no sign of water running out along the shaft then it's probably just the gasket.
Here's a diagram of how it fits together... |

Yep. A mechanic could pressurize the cooling system for you to verify where the water is leaking from, tell whether it's just the gasket or the pump itself (the shaft seals aren't replaceable that I know of).
