I seem to have a leak from the top of my hydraulic pump you can see a small amount of LHM leaking through the threads of the connecting bit?. will it be a new pump or could it just be a washer?>

Could be a failing seal.
Try first the simple thing : nip up the pipe union in question. And I mean nip up - do not apply torque.
Here is a schematic showing the pump : http://citroeny.cz/servis/bxser/cerpadlo_LHM_6+2.gif
