Technical Urrrmm..... Water leaking

[bad_boy_cinq]

Hi, my car has developed a leak ive checked the hoses but none seem to be leaking. When the expansion bottle is filled the leak starts striaght away, its running past the flywheel (see pic). Does anybody know where this leak is.

Thanks.

Checked the seal around the thermostat?

With luck it'll be from the thermostat. But I think you'll find its from a coreplug.

Its not the thermostat that seems dry, is there a coreplug on the side of the engine? The ones on the back are fine as i have just checked thoses.

Thanks.

Coreplug is just below the 'stat but you won't be able to see it due to the bellhousing (or whetever you call it) being there.
