Can they be repaired with leak sealer or is it toast. Just wait until gets bad and then replace the boiler.

I knew this was the answer but had a small Hope! Time to think about a new heater. I’m hoping the damage is due to the previous owners poor water and now I’m on top of it it will not get worse. Plus a by pass will maybe extend a bit too.
Still on the positive side my pool is now being heated on the negative side having replaced the insulation and igniter and paid a lot of Labour I found out that my heater is a ticking time bomb!
It wasn’t like the unit was swimming(!) but enough to make the insulation wet. Guess I need to run it for a few mins every day to keep it dry.
