Using a regular water for what? For engine coolant? For finding the coolant leak?

Is it a crack? It could be the freeze plug. Are you sure it's not the EGR hoses or cooler or is it actually part of the core engine block?

i used a regular water for coolant , yes its a small crack behind the right joint

You have to use a 50/50 mix of VW's G12 coolant and distilled water. Straight water or coolant will overheat the engine. Where is the right joint? On the coolant flange coming off the head or the EGR cooler?

the joint thats behind the engine the other one is behind the gearbox , its 10 cm form the flange on the
engin block

Is this the a/c draining?

Take a picture of the leaking area, it's hard to figure out what you're describing here.
