Assuming that top pulley is the water pump then the pump is leaking. And while you're at it replace that belt too.

Lately it seems the water pumps are the culprits,, depending upon the dealer you use it may be covered under warranty.

Disconnect the Negative Post on the Battery
Then reach the underside of the water pump, right below the shaft you may feel a hole.
If the hole is wet, the water pump bearings are going bad
