Looks to me like both trails lead to the pump mounting bolt holes, go around and then into the impeller cavity.
So perhaps the pump bolts go into the water jacket and required sealant (e.g. https://www.amazon.com.au/LOCTITE-11.../dp/B004QXL4F2 ) was not put on the bolt threads. But even then; water flowing upwards against the force of gravity?
