FWIW, on my car the PO had replaced the water pump after the impeller failed. Last year we pulled the oil cooler that sits atop the engine to replace the o-rings, which were leaking oil. While it was off we looked in the water side of the cooler & found a bunch of plastic shards from the impeller. Makes sense since it's one of the most restrictive places the coolant must flow through.
