Question Coolant leak

I've tracked down a small coolant leak to the heater hose where it connects to the non return valve - presumably the valve, being plastic, should be replaced at the same time? Am I right in thinking this is not part of the infamous octopus hose assembly?

Leaking at the Three Way Connector (item 6)?

If so, it's listed separately from the heater hose.

Thanks Graham - I've managed to narrow it down to the heater valve to bulkhead hose - there is a non return valve included in the hose - part number HJA6739AC for the benefit of any other member that has this problem in the future
