    Ford 7610 leaking coolant at the rear of engine above starter. I can't check it out properly because of the loader. Anyway I suppose it doesn't look good porous engine maybe?

    Looks to be a few on dd, dont think that one ex the matbro in longford is a 7810 engine, think they were simular but more of an industrial engine..

    Could you not take photos with phone I find it great for tight places.
    Usually a porous engine is leaking internally through the liner, sounds more like a head gasket.

    Might be from the water temperature sensor on the head or the tap for draining the coolant. I think its above the starter

    OP posted on another thread to say that a water hose for cabin heater was leaking, was going to join them as heater wasnt required

    That could be it too as the water is leaking above the starter. I am only presuming it's the water pipe to the heater as I'll have to take the loader off to inspect it properly.
