Hi. Hope I do this right as I am a newbie!! 🙂
My Worcester Oil Combi20/25 has developed a leak. It appears to be from a seam at the bottom of the large metal tank that sits behind the expansion vessel and burner (not sure what the part is actually called - water jacket?? It must house the combustion chamber etc) I have attached an image and marked the part XXXX in red.

Anyway, I am trying to source a spare. Will the part from a 15/19 fit as I have the chance of one.? (Don't want to replace the boiler as I am moving soon.)

Any help would be very much appreciated. Part number would be great!!
Thank you

That part you describe is the main boiler shell, but I suppose your description of "water jacket" is accurate.
You really shouldn't be using a boiler that is designed to be smaller output than what you have.
That said, it might be similar outer size.
You could try getting leak sealer into system first.
 
Worcester will sell them or swap the whole boiler.

Thank you. I will contact them but I guess this part will be obsolete by now. If it is available I think it will be mega expensive! I still don't know what the proper name for the part is either.
