Hi guys, Cheers for the responses. 
Ive done a quick flush of the cooling system today, waiting to get a product to do it thoroughly tomorrow. Noticed I've also got black gunk in there too, so I'm guessing it being just condensation is a long shot?
Also a nice shiny oily part on the front offside of the cylinder head.
Also replaced the cat twice now, First one, even with a good heating up didnt really do much, So got a Klarius on now, Although the garage i went to insisted that spending more than i already had wasnt needed. I think this one has cost them about £65. Told them i was willing to spend ~£100 though.
Niall, How easy would the replacement be? Everywhere I've read says I have to get the head skimmed, Which is what im avoiding due to the cost of that. Is a simple replacement of the gasket fine?
