A,
You can see the recovery points on that bar in the pic. They are the 2 bits that poke down below the front of it.

Where are they leaking from?
If its the return lines, its an easy fix. Replace them!
I have just used cheap fuel line once & it lasted about 2 years.

I found over xmas the old girl was severely overheating towing my camper trailer which it hasn't done before, so I had swapped out the pump plus a new thermostat (192*f) and freash coolant after a system flush and I tested it yesterday and it overheated again but this time I only did about 20km before it occured so when I got home I disconnected my fans after the car had cooled and ran it up to almost 3/4 and thne reconnected the fans and found that it wouldn't bring the temp back down.
So this morning I swapped out the radiator and refilled it mostly with water as I have run out of coolant and tried the same test again and this time the temp would come back down once the fans were reconnected, not quickly but steadily but I seriously doubt that the coolant level is correct yet so we will see if that changes anything....

You may have a build up of mud in one of the tanks on the radiator, I had that happen on another car, it soon blocks some of the radiator. IIRC the radiator felt a bit heavier with the muck in it.

Could be but I have no way of telling as the radiator I took out was a copper/brass unit the one I fitted was a copper/plastic one....
