Can't exactly make out where its leaking from but its that side of the engine and is dripping on exhaust. is there anyway to stop it leaking without removing the cambelt? I need to get it to local garage to undo the crank pully as its been tightened with an air gun i reckon as a normal socket wont undo it

have you checked the coolant levels first before assuming its a leak?
And yes i suspect you will need to take of water pump, so you might as well change the belt/pulleys/tensioners while you are at it

dodgy but stick a half inch bar on it, and the correct size of socket and turn the engine over...
mind u if its stuck enuff for the air gun not to take it off, i'd start to worry!
