it was finally traced to EGR cooler stainless steel pipe has split.
Going in Monday for replacement.

If it was the same garage that diagnosed the leak was due to the water pump then they, morally, should offer a Discount for their initial failure.

decided to keep new pump as old one was showing signs of deterioration . ie seals at water end were becoming hard and brittle. Not bad as the pump was the original at 18yrs old.
I have been offered a discount on the labour.
