Water Leak On Mk2 V6

[keithys]

Hi all

I have a water leak coming from pipes at the righthand end of the engine as you look at it what do these pipes run to and how do you get to them as battery and fuaebox hamper access.

Also what is the name for the pipes so i know what to order and can you get pattern parts or dealer only

Thanks in advance keith
