Default Coolant Leak

Have a 95 VW Cabrio that is dripping coolant below the power steering pump. Replaced the water pump due to bearing failure about 6 months ago and everything went back fine, no leak at that time. Small leak has now developed but can not locate the source. Removed pump and used tube gasket on all connections but still get the same leak. Could it be leaking from someplace else? No water in the oil and car runs fine so don't think it is head gasket. Nothing visible except steady drip under car. Is there another way to test with the car partially disassembled? What about hooking up a garden hose to pressurize system?

yeah, try pressurizing it with a garden hose. Is that the 2.0L?
