Only way really is to look underneath after it has been run for a bit and see where water has run from and try to follow it back to the source.

put it on blocks and allow it to fill then look underneath or put a sheet of cardboard underneath and see where abouts water drips onto it.

Check sump and pump hoses, soap dispenser hose to drum.

Is the soap dispenser drawer fitted right and clean (water can run out of that and track towards the door then down the front of machine)

Check back of machine is there rusty water marks on the back of the drum around the drum pully.

Check the door/front seal, has it got a hole in, does it seal against the glass, are the securing clamps fitted tightly.

Check your fill hoses and pipework as well as the valves inside the machine (recent weather has caused loads of split valves near me).

last but not least run the machine with the lid off and watch where the water comes from, keeping hands clear of the electrics and moving parts.
