Good evening all this morning I was traveling home and noticed smoke coming from under the bonnet, I pulled over and open the bottom, the smoke seemed to be coming from the back of the engine, I drove it to my friends garage and we put it on the Ramps to have a look at it, it seems to have a diesel leak spraying out from the back of engine drivers side, we could not see the exact location it was coming from, does anyone know what this problem could be and could it be fixed without taking the body off, as I don’t have the sort of cash to do this we the current way things are at present and the vehicle is my only means of transport, many help would be most appreciated
thanks
Danny
 
You are going to have to work out the source of the leak, leak off pipe failure is not unknown, has it had any recent work done?

Use a mirror or camera to see round the back of the engine. You may get a betterer view from looking though the holes in the wheel arch or from underneath.
