Waterpump leakage?

Hi, has anyone experienced waterpump seal leakage?
Waterpumps on have a small hole underneath in case of the seal fails, so the coolant wouldnt "stay in the system".
Well, on my bike, when high revving, i get a little coolant dripping out from this little hole underneath the waterpump.
I found this out today after a longer ride, when I leaned my bike, some coolant dropped on pavement , that was gathered inside bash plate.
Bike has done 18000km, so far no problems.
Will go to service on monday/tuesday.
What would be the cost of a new seal, I have no idea... The good thing is, I was about to replace the coolant anyway :P
