Suggest taking the water pump back apart, making sure to change the gaskets and seals which come with the impeller kit.

There's a leaking seal, but it's impossible to say which one without doing a pressure test. Take a look at the parts diagram on shop2.evinrude.com - the only seal associated with the water pump that might cause this would be the driveshaft seal (#7 on the gearcase diagram for your engine).
