Default coolant leak

Hoping the experts here can chime in. I noticed a small pool (phone sized) of pink fluid under the rear of the car today (midline but slightly more to driver's side) after a drive yesterday. Car is 07 with 26k miles on it. Lines have not been pinned or welded. But when I look underneath, this looks (fingers crossed) like the hose to the water pump? Going to call some shops tomorrow to try to get in but wondering what you guys think this could be coming from? Pics attached from under the car

Closing the loop, it was coming from the water pump, so getting water pump, thermostat, coolant expansion tank and cap all replaced. Can't wait to get it back on the road.
