Default Possible oil in water??

Hey guys-
Last weekend I ripped out all of my a/c components. During the install of the a/c eliminator kit I had to remove a couple of the bolts on the driver's side of the water pump. I only removed/replaced one bolt at a time so as not to loosen the seal on the water pump. The seal never seemed to break while removing/installing the new water pump bolts...but I did see a VERY small amount of water begin to form above one of the bolt holes where the pump meets the block. I quickly put in the new bolt and tightened it down & wiped away any water that was present.
My question is...if the water pump seal was slightly broken...is there a chance that some coolant leaked down into my oil? I forgot what exactly was behind the water pump...and wasn't sure if the coolant could even reach the oil from there? I'm thinking everything is fine really. No coolant dripped down off the motor or anything. There was hardly any at all. I just wanted to see what you guys thought before starting it up??
