Default Xc90 D5 coolant leak, pipes ok, fluid on block

Hello all,

I wonder if anyone can help? Our 54 plate D5 has started loosing coolant. Been ok up until last week then it started dropping and now using about half a pint every 3 days. Pipes look fine but I have noticed blue coolant low down on the engine block. I'm not expert but it looks too for the head gasket. It seems to be weeping from the gasket but why is coolant down by the sump?

Any ideas?

Many thanks,
Sam
