I recently found a plumbing leak (coming out from shower enclosure) when I hooked up the water (before I turned anything on) Any ideas?

Had the same thing happen in mine. I cut a hole in the plastic surround , fixed the leak then sealed it with a piece of aluminum.

Yes, it was right at the valve connection. I used shark bites to fix it.
