Thanks man
Well the waterpump was already replaced. I wonder how much it would cost to just do all of the listed common leaks as a preventative. I looked up the water outlet and the revervoir On gmparts direct the stuff seems pretty cheap I just cant find the turbo lines. Id rather fix it all now then have to do it at another time down the road.
Guess ill report back with the findings

How you define your "leaking"? Do you see any stains on the garage floor on a particula side or..?
Other issue not mentioned is that due to the OEM thermostat for 1.4 (Gen1) you may boil the coolant without even knowing it. I had this issue on all my Cruze and see below my fix:
1.4 ECO - Thermostat Swap - 221°F to 176°F! | Chevrolet Cruze Forums (cruzetalk.com)
I don't know exactly where it's leaking from but the coolant reservoir was almost empty and yes there is spots where I park.
