There's a steel tank on top of engine and expansion tank on right hand side behind headlight. Fill tank up and expansion tank to min drive car and see if water is coming out of pipe on expansion tank. If its pressurizing system could be head gasket!!!

There's a reason water is pressurising and coming out mate. I had a classic doing same thing and wasn't sure what to do with it. You could try k seal but temp fix. If be tempted to get it looked at as to minimise any damage that could be done. I'm in alfreton so nearest specialist for me is scooby clinic.heard good and bad reports. I've used once and they sorted me so not going to slag them off.
