That two ones on the left? Where do they enter the case? Is it accessible with the box and tank on?

Yeah it's easy if you have tiny hands. So generally a total pain in the rse.

Front one goes to front camchain tunnel area at the bottom end of cylinder head. Rear one goes to near the gearbox.

Soo from what I can see, slight leaking round the timing windows plug thing at the top (probably just wants a new copper crush washer), just below that there is the 10mm allan key plug that I've faffed around with on the left hand side of the engine casing - I don't think I seated it right as it's leaking at the bottom. The rear of this casing (not too acessible) also seemed a bit moist and a drip appeared at the bottom of the clutch adjustment doo da.
The oil drop sump thingy is also dripping (hopefully just a new washer again) and the clutch case cover is leaking.
My radiator is also leaky (suprise) but I'm gonna radweld the **** outta it.

That which is dripping off the sump plug is likely to be just the leaks everywhere else running down.
