Yes, your water pump attaches to the front of the engine block. If a leak opens up between the two, coolant goes into the crankcase along with oil. That means water and oil are being circulated through the bearings and cylinders of your engine. Don't drive it in this condition.
Your water pump is driven externally by the serpentine belt...your starting problem is not water pump related...have the Crank Position Sensor tested...an intermittent starting problem like yours is usually caused by this sensor being cracked...Much less costly!! Hope this helps.

The design of the ford focus is pretty bad. If you didnt do the timing perfect the pistons will hit the valves. This is called a zero clearence engine. You need to check compression in the cylinders and make sure they are in spec.
