Default Water pipe leaking

996 4S Cabriolet 2004.

I have a water leak from a rubber pipe that runs over the nearside rear axle, it connects to metal pipes. I think it part of the heating system but I am having an almost impossible job of identifying the actual pipe on part diagrams.

i have a photo if it helps

Thanks

Tom

Thank you, sorry I have taken so long to get back to you. The diagram helps, I know I must be thick but I can't identify front on back on the diagram.
