Small coolant leak by the water pump

I have a small leak by the water pump. It looks like it's the gasket. Should I just change the gasket or should I put in a new pump while I'm there?

:w2: I would replace the water pump while it is off. They can start to weep and they are not that expensive. Saves removing it twice.:humm:
