I haven't had the time to get back at yet, but that is what I suspect as well. I saw a thread on another site talking about the same thing. I can't remember if I checked that the fitting under the side panel was tight or not.
Plan is to pull the side cover, do an initial pressure check like HRL said to do and see what leaks. I hope it is the fittings at the side of the engine or the one under the side cover. Next fix the leak and a second pressure check. If not, then drop the pan and keep looking.
It still does not address why my compression is so low. I used a new Head gasket and I thought everything lined up. What may have happened is that there is a head gasket issue as well. It did not appear to have contaminated the antifreeze in the radiator. I think the new water pump pushed the AF through whatever hole is in there and the radiator stayed clean.
