Have a look under the boiler and ther will be a bank of pipes entering with valves on them.

not being funny bob, but if you need help identifying the isolation valves, i doubt that your fault finding skills will be sufficient to resolve the problem. it is not a matter of "nothing ventured, nothing gained. do the wrong thing and you can make matters worse, or buying parts that don't need changing.
