that is where your water pump is, should get replaced when the timing belt gets done.

Definitely change the water pump and all the bit under the timing cover. Be sure to clean the everything well as it probably has coolant on it. Good time to change the accessory belts as well.
I didn't change the pump in time and the bearing failed causing the shaft for fall, busting the fan and breaking the lower timing cover. This happened a few weeks ago actually. Not a fun day.
