There's a plate on the right hand side of the block that has a habit of leaking. Hard to get to but apparently if the starter is removed, it can be pulled off, sealed and done back up again. Might be worth looking with a torch and mirror.
Ok thanks for the advice all.. So I filled it up with water n turned it on.. Found the leak straight away at the left hand side at the back of the engine there is a metal(guessing copper) pipe around 16mm thick with a nut fitting on the end going into the engine with a small say 6mm pipe coming off that metal pipe for a hose clamp connection that smaller pipe has bent n come away from the larger pipe starting to rip off..
Not the best picture looks better on my phone but that wetness in the middle is where the small pipe is broken n further along that pipe u can see the larger pipe n the nut connection to engine
Sorry for the high jack, but why do people insist on using chemiweld only when selling a car? I'd much prefer to see a leak when buying a car as opposed to finding it reappear when heading on a long trip.

Because people are less likely to buy a car with a coolant leak and chemiweld is a cheap quick fix.
