If it's coming from below the fuel pump & smells a bit dieselly, could be the fuel pump seals, there's a fact sheet on repalcing these I think & Ian stocks the seals in the club shop.
How's that for starters?

DH has just had a look underneath and put some card under and its actually dripping towards back of the engine!

Check the filter seal, under the passy seat, make sure it's on tight or if it's been put on dry it could have twisted the seal. better check the level too. There were a batch of iffy filters a while back too, but I think they did more of a complete dump.

He did change the oil and filter a good while back so it sounds likely to be that, he did have a quick look but is going to look again this afternoon. Since he changed it I didn't check my levels again and suddenly my oil light came on after a few months, which is what alerted us to a problem. We've noticed it dripping ever since.
