Hi
It’s not weeping through the expansion tank. I think it’s where the rubber seal on the cap sits. As it’s the second cap I can only assume that’s where it’s coming from.

See pictures attached. One person thinks the cap is letting pressure out has there is a fault in the cooling system maybe the thermostat
The temperate gauge never goes above normal though ?.

I have exactly the same issue. Replaced cap 10 months ago and has been fine until this week. Coolant leaking from the cap. Did the problem reoccur for you once the new tank was fitted?
