Worcester Danesmoor 20/25 boiler water leak?

Boiler is about 5 years old, has just started leaking water, about 2 litres per day, have checked in and out connections on one side and blanking plugs on the other, they appear to be water tight.
It was serviced last week, is it possible they could have disturbed something?
Are there any other connections to check, have not taken side covers off, water is appearing from under boiler towards the rear.
Now need to top up system regularly so i know it coming from the boiler.
Is it likely to be the water jacket that's leaking?
Thanks in anticipitaion for any help or suggestions.

These boilers apear to be prone to leaks. I had the first one replaced free by Worcester after two years use. This boiler has now started leaking at the identical spot after 6 years. It is the bottom right hand corner weld when viewed from the front.

the tank at the back is probably leaking at one of the welds. Take the tank out and get a plate welded on to the back covering the leak. A new tank costs approximately the same as a new boiler. To plate is should cost no more than £50
