A little progress....

There is no leakage with engine not actually running.

Run the engine and there is a steady constant drip every few seconds, with a trail down the front of the engine itself, then onto sump. Difficult to see where from, but it is down the front face of the engine (side of block/sump), between mid-point of steering pump. It appears immediately the engine is started.

Crank pulley, as I said is quite dry. I cannot see any oil from under the bonnet at all the leakage is from somewhere quite low down.

Anyone near Garforth able to take a look?
