I suspected a water leak as a tide mark has appeared on an internal wall. The plumbing manifold is close to the affected area so I took the cover off it and there appears to be a leak coming from two of the motorized valves. I unscrewed the motor ( two screws) to reveal the spindle and mounting plate. There are two bolts securing the mounting plate to the metal body of the valve itself and these appeared to be tight but there is still a drip coming from underneath it.

Does anyone know why the motorized valve would be leaking in this area and how it can be rectified?
