You should be able to check the T piece fitting which nests just behind the battery. It's a push-and-twist fitting and can sometimes leak.

Thanks for that, I'll check it out for integrity.
Having seen a Youtube vid on a leaking pump and its location Ive found wet and blue staining at rear bottom of front wheel arch, so I guess theres the culprit.
Just need to confirm if theres 2 pumps or the 1.

There is a connector to the headlights behind the wheel arch cover - might be that.
