as above it seems to be comming from the filler pipe, had a quick look tonight the top of the filler pipe is dry but deisel is dripping from the bottom bend from the tank, its not leaking from the tank though its further up the pipe as it goes up under the plastic cover in the rear wheel arch, is there a breather tube up there or anything that could cause a leak? any help would be appreciated colin

Probably the worst attempt of spelling Diesel I've ever seen 
Just take the rear wheel off and have a proper look to see where it's coming from.

most diesel cars got a hose attached to the filler pipe,so when the diesel is full,and go out the filler spot,it don't spell on the car body,but it goes down to the ground,but not sure if that is the case in your car.

could be a bad seal/rip in the rubber join at the base of the filler leg.
