Have you checked around the throttle body, common to have a small leak there. Also the coolant line going to the intake located just to the left of the PCV line loosened and caused a small leak on my 97. Here's a couple links:

where is the general location of the leak? ... if it is coming out of the seep hole in the water pump, then the pump seal is going ... if it is coming from where it actually meets the engine block, then likely you could get away with putting a new gasket on ... sometimes though the upper hose inlet will leak and drip down to the pump and make it appear as if the pump itself is leaking ... so if you can, clean it all out ... run the truck and see if you can pickup where it is coming from and go from there
