Dont ignore a water leak , get it up in the air with it running to see you can spot or a garage that can put the system under pressure and check that way , could be a number of things from waterpump to cracked housing

+1 for water pump which will get worse if its not fixed soon.
With the engine off and cooled down, put your hand under the water pump and feel for a leak.

The oil leak could be investigated at the same time the water leak is being fixed.
