Water pump update...

Thanks to all you guys who responded! The rattling noise is indeed coming from the water pump. I double checked it with a hose and mechanic's stethescope. The thing looks like a bear to replace! It looks to be blocked by AC lines, plus there's the turbo coolant line to worry about. Are there any write ups for this procedure out there? I'm not even sure what bolts I need to remove. Does anyone know the size of the nut on the turbo coolant line- I feel like I should get a tubing wrench for it. Any feedback on aftermarket versus OEM pumps- aftermarket is cheap, haven't priced OEM but I would expect it to be very expensive.
Thanks for any advice!
