Quick 2.6 question

I took a look at a '93 190E 2.6 this afternoon. One quick question for y'all, what could be the likely source of a small amount of coolant pooling on the lip of the valve cover on the driver's side (US) of the block?

I have two suspicions: A leaking hose, either the upper or the bypass; a really bad water pump.

No oil in the coolant, no coolant in the oil, don't think it could be a headgasket. I'll only say it is an auction car, the tow yard drove it in (but left the rt standing lights on so the battery is dead) with 180K on the clock. MB's are few and far between up here so I don't think there will be much interest in it, may be able to get it uber cheap. Getting bored and feeling the need for a project.
