Perhaps someone can help me with this one: I have a slight leak of water comeing from somewhere. I done an oil/filter change today and when I started her up steam was coming from where the exhaust manifold was. Upon closer inspection I noticed drips coming from behind the oil filter.

I know it's not to do with me changing the filter as it did the same steamy thing yesterday but it disappeared.

My exhaust also seem quite steamy :s white smoke and when I rev it and go to check the backbox there is a big watermark on the ground below the exhaust tip :/

I don't see any leaksfrom the coolant hoses, nothing on the ground when I check the next day. It leads me to think it's occuring when the system is under operating pressure? So is this water pump related also? Any help is appreciated, cheers!

the seal sits in where ive coloured the casing in green

its a push fit pipe and is bolted at the other end... its possible you have knocked it accidentally causing it to leak slightly under running pressure;)
