If the faults were not there prior to timing belt / water pump , should have taken it back to whoever carried out the work .

there was a small oil leak but it is now worse after the timing and water pump has been done

also there is a humming sound coming from the air flow meter area and when i unplug it the noise goes away do you think it could be my air flow meter thanks

If it's coming from the cam cover area it could be camshaft , crankshaft oil seals leaking .You will have to clean engine up and try to see where it's leaking from .

Run the engine with the air flow meter unplugged .If rough and clears when reconnected it's working o.k .If no difference when unplugged , knackered .
