Default Oil leak where water pump?

I been having problem after another the good thing is they are getting resolved with all of your help which I greatly appreciate.
2007 hummer h3 had problem with head replaced the head works like a champ
had a problem with misfire and injector 2 cleaned checked wires and pushed the wiggled the wires and for some reason it fixed it !

now the last thing I been noticing that I am leaking oil just under the water pump above the ac compressor kinda that area . My question is what caused it to leak and what’s the fix for that? When I took off the front to do my timing and all I put new sealant all around and new water pump gasket . I just noticed that today. Any help I would appreciate . Thank you

Btw, a 1/8" bead of sealant needs to go all around the groove including around the water pump mount and 3 spots as shown here #1:
