Tomorrow I will work on unbolting the compressor and then attempt to pull the timing cover.

That's for sure a leaking water pump, that where they leak, it's a weep hole once the shaft seal deteriorates that is where it will leak, definitely time for replacement it and it was an active leak.
Anytime on these Toyotas that uses the pink coolant and you see that pink crud it's an active leak.
