Worcester boiler part leaking

Hello this part of my Worcester boiler seems to have a leak and boiler pressure has gone up? Any ideas what this part is?

Check your filling loop first please make sure it's turned off and not passing when closed , we will need more information there are dozens of different Worcester Bosch boilers to be sure the advice we give is correct we will need the exact model or a few more pictures from a bit further away .

Your boiler is reading 3.5 bar ...is this when hot or cold and did you set it so high ? Reduce it to just below 1.5 bar immediately I am surprised the safety valve has not operated. For good measure dis connect the filling loop at one end. Centralheatking

I moved into this house a year ago and all has been well. I only noticed this when I saw a small damp patch in the cupboard under the boiler the day I posted on this thread. I have not set it to 3.5 and was definitely between 1.0-1.5 bar. The boiler was also cold
