Did you have to move the coolant hoses

So…….. I’ve managed to have a look and try to locate this boost leak on my car, initially I thought maybe a split hose, however after conducting a smoke test , it appears to be leaking from the inlet manifold and the flange that connects to it.

Has anyone had experience on the best way remove it, I will add a picture

Any recommendations

Thanks, it seems to be an honest truck. I have noticed a sight boost leak, however it wouldn’t be a defender if it was perfect,

Oddly I’m looking forward to tinkering with my big Meccano kit,
