The lower of the 3 was white with corrosion and when I removed the lid lining there was a white blotch which matched up with the corroded bolt.
I could go on about all the other areas I dealt with but initially I think you should look at the lid.
Thanks for your post. ill give that a investigation too. Because is it coming out of th left side (between th iner and outer panel) and not down th middle below th latch is a bit confusing though. I put in kitchen roll in to latch catch though to see if it leaves a mark.

Cheers Phil
