    Can a leaking head gasket cause damage to the water pump? Cause this is
    the story I heard today from the service manager of my local dealership.

    FYI, the car had started producing a distinct engine noise at 65K
    (kilometers, not miles), which the mechanics attributed to a water pump
    going bad. They replaced the pump and timing belt while at it.

    But is their theory plausible? Also, I know about the oil in coolant and
    coolant in oil symptoms when a head gasket blows. But can the leak be
    actually visible, such as a valve cover gasket one?

    Thanks,

    Nikolas

    ps. Peugeot 307 1.4L petrol, 2003, 65K.
