| Help! The front heater core is leaking and I need another one. Turns out these are discontinued so any out there from breakers willing to post to UK?

| When heater matrix's start leaking it can indicate the coolant needed changing some time ago, so when you change it I'd flush it all out and completely refill with Toyota long life coolant.
As its leaking anyway you may wish to remove it (use a small pipe to allow the coolant to flow still and to be able to use the van) and perhaps see if you can find a place that will repair it for you.
E.g. take it in your hand to a place like this: https://www.aaronradiator.co.uk/ and ask them what they can do.
