where on the passenger side? Does it look like it's coming from under the radiatior? That could be the petcock/drainplug on the radiator, the upper hose (may not be tight enough), further towards the back it could be your heater core, could be either heater hoses (though those are closer to the middle as is your water pump).

forgot to add that it could also be your coolant reservoir bottle or the skinny hose that's on it. That would be further towards the back passenger side as well like your heater core.

Weep hole is on the front of the pump casting ... behind the disc that the belt pulley mounts on.

Should be a telltale stain if its leaking.

Might be worth checking the area around the radiator inlet, too ... the plastic tanks are known to crack with age and heat.
