Before you replace anything have a look at This article which is what Gozz is referring to. If they are the source of your drip then they are working correctly. 
GO EASY in this area. The rubber pipes fit on to plastic tubes on the Matrix and they could well be brittle with age. 
Read This article and scroll down and enlarge the pictures on the right of the page. Second one down shows those plastic pipes clearly.

Problem sorted now, it would seem it was the air con condensation.
It has not used a drop since putting back on the road, thanks for the help!
