An experiment while waiting on O Rings

I removed the cover this afternoon and looked into the coolant tank, it was not empty. My O rings will not be in for a few days so I decided to add some water, to my surprise it only took a few ounces to bring the level up to the "Min" mark...surprising small amount. I left the covers off and of course the car will not be driven, so if the fluid remains at the "Min" mark it should rule out a split coolant tank ?? right ??

We will see tomorrow if the water has dropped..I did find a few drops under the water pump area, so a preemptive water pump looks to still be in the future (I just 80K miles)....but as I understand from reading the water pump is easy compared to the coolant tank.
