2007 sportsman 800 leaking anti freeze

Leaking anti freeze from what seems like behind water pump, I might be wrong but it seems that it is acually leaking behind where the water pump cover is. By that I mean not the water pump gasket but just past that...does this make any sense to anyone?

This seal you speak of, is there just the one or inner and outer? Does the seal just pull out like a oil seal would do?

Thank you for your reply.

replacing the seal for the waterpump is not for the faint at heart as there is alot of stuff to pull off. if you do not have the special seal installer you will damage the seal. buy the installer! it will make your life alot easier.

I went ahead and took to my dealer. For 130.00 in labor it's a no brainer, as you stated there is is just way to much that can go wrong. Thanks everyone for replys. Got the machine back last week, rode this past saturday all is well.
