Timing cover gasket?
 
Hi guys,I'm new to this,so bear with me.I have a coolant leak between the engine block and the aluminum part in front of it.This is the part that holds the water pump and everything around it.My question is:
Is this the timing cover?
Will I need anything else besides the timing cover gasket and the waterpump gasket?
Thanks for any help!

That is indeed the timing cover. Once you have it off look for pitting around the mating surface coolant passages, if it's minor you can buff it out, if it is bad you will have ro replace the timing cover.
