Slow dripping L connection under sink

[addicto222]

Hi,

I have a leak under the sink and have found the source, that being a L shape pipe connection which is behind some plaster board.
To the right of the sink there is a dishwasher and to the left there is a washing machine.
The damp plasterboard is due to my genius idea of putting a rag around the leak last night which transferred the water to the paster board. I am currently doing my best to capture the water that drips with a tray and rags underneath.
A few questions I have are, what is the pipe? I assume it connects to the dishwasher however it still slowly drips even though the dishwasher has not been on for a couple of days.
How can I stop the dripping for now? From the photo you can see I have a water tap and on the left of the photo there is a blue lever too.
How much would it cost to fix the leak? Assuming it is just the L connector.

Thank you.

I would say it's from your boiler if it's close

Hi, thanks for replying. The boiler is in the bedroom which is directly above the kitchen.

Could be from that tbh best option is to get a plumber out to replace the elbow and damaged part of the pipe

I feel that is best. Do you have a general idea of the cost to fix the issue if it is just the elbow?

At a guess under £200 but that's just a guess
