    Today found fluid running from car on N/S. Not black engine oil or brake fluid as there is no smell to it.
    But its a waxy feel to it and water bottle is low.

    So any clues if its a common area to have a leak at the rear of the engine on battery side, before I take battery out etc to search.
    Fluid can be seen on top of the bellhousing/gbox and drips from undertray.

    thanks

    I would suspect it is the water hosing on the side of the head, they are made from Nylon 66 and it breaks down over time.
