It's between cylinders 3 and 4.
You can see the grommet here.

my 1.6 had the very same issue, though it wasnt as bad. could see random wisps of steam coming from round the back of the head, new o'ring sorted it.
pain in the rear to do though, you need proper allen head sockets with thin socket extension to reach them all, and a mirro helps massively as they're very deep between the manifolds
