heater by-pass valve by the sound of it ;) About £30 for a new one from vauxhall & allow an hour or so to fit, not difficult, just awkward to get access to. Remove wipers & plastic scuttle for reasonable access. :y
I've only ever done one on a V6 ..... assume a 4 cylinder car is similar :-/
here is the guide for a V6 http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1193594464 t

Generally called the heater bypass valve. Has 3 large pipes and one small vacuum pipe on the top.
Quite prone to leaking.

That would be your heater bypass valve leaking, about £34 from vauxhall.
