I installed my water pump in yesterday and bolted down 4 out of the 5 bolts and left the outer hole of the water pump that connects to the alternator bracket alone,because I'm waiting for my oem alternator to come in so I can torque down the last bolt/alternator bracket together, I was wondering if the water pump is going to leak because of that last un torqued bolt???
 
Most likely yes. I installed a new alternator yesterday and while that bolt was out there was coolant leaking from the bolt hole.
