CX-9 Failing Water pump symptoms?

:
Mazda cx-9 2008
Hello. Colleagues, should the engine hole behind the alternator be dry without coolant? My mileage is 180,000 miles, the oil is clean and the condition of the coolant is unchanged. Should you change the pump or ride and watch the fluids and keep on running?
 
Perhaps the best way is to analyze the engine oil for glycol. The laboratory for me will do such an oil test for 15usd. If the test shows coolant in oil, the pump can be kicked out.
