Hello Robert,

Ask the MOT tester to give you details of the fuel leak so that you can attend to it.

Replacing rear shock absorbers is not a big deal. You're right that a lifespan of 22,000 miles is unacceptable. This time, source your own replacements from a reputable source, preferably X-Part direct.
