1.2 petrol AWY engine . 52 plate 94k miles (new MOT!)

was changing the oil (nice n hot) yesterday when i saw a steady drip off the heat shield , identified as coolant (tasted it, ugh!),

looked again 10 mins later and it had stopped ! ( topping up has been required for some time).

later i traced the leak to where two hoses/ pipes go into the bulkhead at the bacck of the engine bay but i cant see what the problem is.

Can anyone help?

cheers.

Two pipes going into the bulkhead suggests heater supply pipes, are the fixing clips tight?

had another look tonight, clips seem tight( original spring ones i think) and as far asi can see the hoses are not damaged , however what ever they are fixedto seems to have movement in it .

i do not want to start dismantling without having some idea what i am doing/looking for
