Leak was straightforward and fixed and it did not overheat. I have added distilled water to top it up since I have no way to know absolutely what was in there. I will just go ahead and get the necessary porsche coolant and drive it as is while I decide if I want to go ahead and do a water pump and thermostat and belt at the same time. I have the situation stabilized for now and can take my time with the next step. I am leaning toward replacing pump, belt and thermostat and maybe the motor mount as well. I am not inclined toward unnecessary maintenance, but I want everything as it should be. 38K miles is a little early to be changing pump and belt, but it is also 8 years old and time can also take a toll. thanks for the input.
