1974 corvette water pump

Is there a way to check it before I take it out? Thanks.

Signs of water directly underneath it. There's a small hole.
Grab the shaft and see if you feel any play.
Is the car overheating?

NO,about 180-190 deg,new hoses,thermosant, I run it 45 min & NO water
movement in radiator ?? Thanks.

Do you know anyone with a cooling system pressure tester?
Takes only a minute to locate any possible leaks, but a lot longer to
fix 'em...K

Ignore previous post,,,,I didn't read this comment before answering.
Does the radiator feel at all warm?

Is the radiator hot or cold? If that is the factory gage, I'd stick another
one in just for a check.
