Default Loosing coolant help!!

Hi again guys, I've got major problems with my classic scooby (as usual). For some reason it has started leaking the coolant on a regular basis. It has been alright for a while but with me starting a new job that I have to drive too its imperative that I get it working right.

I jacked the car up as I noticed a dripping under the car, here are the pictures I got, sorry they're crap but my phone hasn't got a flash so I had to use a torch





It appears to be leaking from by the oil sump, I can't find any hoses in that area to replace and it looks like its running down and dripping from where I took the pictures but I'm not very technical with them so I can't start removing bits to find where it may be coming from.

Does anybody have any odea what this might be and how to fix it? Thanks in advance guys

I've got the funny feeling it might be the water pump so I've got it booked into a garage first thing in the morning. I just know this is going to cost way more than I have, I'm almost starting to hate owning a scooby now
