Sure you can get an additive for the coolant that when used with a uv light glows to help show where its come from, cant remember what its called though. If you found the leak in the morning it may only leak when cold as once warm bits expand. Had that issue before with water pumps, just a though, may be well off the mark :roll:

Owned a fair few rovers which are know for hg failures so traced a few coolant/oil leaks before ;)
