Default urgent help asap water pump possibly failed

Had an issue on the way to work today where I had a overheat. Topped it up and left it all day. Just come out now an checked it and I'm getting a squeeling noise (not fan belt type) which is a bit mechanical an water is around the pulleys at the front of the engine. Is this water pump failure? Or something else. I'm about to call greenflag now to take me home

Anyone any advise on this? I've searched the forum whilst I'm sittin here an it definatly sounds like the pump. Also noticed the top rad pipe has a very small split in it. How much does it cost to replace a pump?

Does sound like the water pump. Best bet would be to whip the cambelt cover off and look underneath for the source of the leak.
