Hi. We have a 2009 cooper S which has an oil leak. Not too seriuos. It also developed a cooling problem which, using your excellant articles, we diagnosed as being the water pump. We removed the water pump and the vehicle has been standing for 2 days. I now notice a large pool of oil under the water pump area. The oil is dark and does not appear to have water mixed with it. Any suggestions?

Could be a crank seal leak. I would look for signs of the leak on the engine. Look for a clean we spot, that will likely be the source.
