Probably started leaking at the flush cone because you've been disturbing things - always happens!

While you have all that exposed, I'd put a support under the flexible pan connector as these have a tendancy to droop over time, fill with crap and then pull off the back of the spigot!
Remove whole flush valve with cable assembly. Valve is a bayonet fit.
The cable end to valve is a clip in fit, but the clips can break fairly easily *I have the T shirt..
https://www.siamp.co.uk/optima-50/ may help with all that?
Flush cone should be easy to sort and may just need a remove, clean and some silicone grease to refit and push back in place?

Nothing wrong with that used on a flush cone.

Thanks again, all - I’ll order new valves and try to get them out via the opening, rather than have to remove both the cabinets/units. It’s really only access that’s the issue.
I’ll have a look at fitting a new flush cone.
