yes, the rubber pipe from hbv goes to 'coolant bridge' - the metal rail you've highlighted.

if its coming from coolant bridge, it may be worth renewing them pesky bolts and washers as a cheap hopeful fix, as well as ensuring the connecting rubber hoses are tight, full on and jubileed tightly.

Are you sure it is not coming from the HBV and dripping onto the coolant bridge?

If it is the coolant bridge, are you sure it is not from the temp sender?

Failing that, then as said above....
