Coolant Leak At Rear of Engine - Turbo Pipe?

Hi all, it's been ages since I've posted on here.

 

Car has been laid up for a year or so! It has a coolant leak at rear of engine on passenger side (nearside).

 

I've pulled the plenum to do a water bypass but think the leak is coming from further down! Is that where the passenger turbo water feed is?

 

If it is how the hell do you get to the pipe with the engine still in. I can just about squeeze my hand between the rear of the engine and the bulkhead.

 

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Pics would be nice too :).

 

Cheers

you need to remove the turbo inlet pipe. and then you can get to the hose you need.

have had to do this same fix before at side of the road, 30miles from home.

can be done with a screwdriver, long nose pliers and a knife.
