ITS FIXED!!!!!
I spent a couple of hours last night taking all the joints apart and cleaning them up. I also stripped the Power Pole connectors to make sure they were making good connections. The fault was with the black cable from the rectifier and its connection in the Power Pole. The cables are almost as large as the housing they solder into when connecting to the terminal in the Power Pole. There must have been a bad connection here even though it has performed very well for at least six months. I re-soldered the connector, put everything back together and hey presto I now have 14V at the battery with the engine running.
Thank you to everybody who contributed for your help and patience. Its very much appreciated.
