Is this my water pump leaking?

I have had a small but steady coolant leak for a couple of months now. I went offroading today and it got way worse. The coolant appears to be coming out just above where the lower radiator hose connects to the engine block. It doesn't leak when the truck is running, but as soon as I shut it off, it pours out. Is it my water pump?

This should give you some idea of what's going on under there.
