many thanks for all the suggestions,the new waterpump does not appear to leak the tray underneath is dry(unlike before when you could stand and watch it dripping onto it and i touched the seal will trying to show guys at lakes volvo by phone and it fell apart oops),
no puddles under the car, not sure where i would buy a pulsating light source from(especially as it loses a header tank full when driven on a 5 mile roundtrip) been without a car all week,waiting in a queue for mechanic good ones always popular
i will have another look at various pipes etc and try to see behind the pump
i dont want to lose this one to a headgasket,replacements are hard to find these days
