Hotpoint Aquarius WMA 30 Leaking?

Hi, does anybody have any ideas about this?
Its not the door because I have leak stains under the dispenser draw. I have removed the dispenser draw and checked for blockages and washed it out.

The leak is not actually from the drawer, it looks like leakage from behind the plastic front panel underneath.

I guess this means its the pipe between the drawer and the drum. I have taken the front off but I dont know how to get to that pipe?

Any comment or suggestions are very welcome

Sounds like your outlet pipe or pump is blocked. Problem will usually occur when machine starts to spin - water comes up via drum inlet pipe below dispenser.

Thanks for the reply Phil,

Looking at the back of the dispenser there are 3 pipes about the width of my little finger and a big pipe underneath the drawer are you saying just pull them off??

Are they easy to get on and off?? All the pipes look brand new and not perished as I thought.

andrew inside the draw where you put in conditioner is a plastic insert take it out of the draw and pull off the two plastic pipes give them a good clean out
