To get the scuttle end caps off I find it is best to lift the upper edge off first, then push down to unclip the bottom hooks.

Got panel off. Tried to undo some strange looking bracket from round a rubber thingy. Hardy any room for spanner to move. Took a small nut of. No luck. Ain't got a fooking clue!!! No signs of any rubber hoses. Pic to follow.

Use a socket set, it's easy then.

Undo the three torx bolts holding the black bracket done to the scuttle, it will then lift up.
Undo the two bolts into the brake valve then it will come away to reveal the hog ring holding the rubber button in place. (you can just see it in your picture, through the hole in the black bracket)
prop the valve up on a wooden block, or similar. Prise out the hog ring and pull out the rubber button, which judging by the wetness is indeed leaking.
Replace with new button, press in hog ring, rebuild bracket, ensuring when in position there is 9mm of free play.

10 minutes work all in from this point.
