Very old water pumps such as the originals may need light greasing.

Any water pump that  has been built or rebuilt in the last 20 - 30 
years will
have lubed, sealed, bearings which require no greasing. Trying to inject
grease into this newer type bearing will likely only ruin the seals.
Modern coolants (not plain water) contain water pump lubricant which is
sufficient.
