The fundamental issue here is that you appear to have installed Windows Sharepoint Services on PORT 80, which is blocking the ability of the WSUS Health Monitoring service to access the /selfupdate v-dir on the "Default Web Site".
You need to configure WSS to =Not Manage= the WSUS resources in the Default Web Site, which include /selfupdate, /wutrack.bin, and /iuident.cab. The co-existence requirements of Windows Sharepoint Services and Windows Server Update Services have been discussed incessantly over the past five years and a simple web search on "WSUS" and "Sharepoint" should turn up dozens of threads all documenting the configuration requirements for WSS to permit WSUS co-existence.
I'm also quite curious that you appear to have a /clientwebservice v-dir in the Default Web Site on a Win2008R2 system, given that the /clientwebservice v-dir has not been required in the Default Web Site since WSUS v3 was released -- but this is merely a curiosity, it has no bearing on the functioning, or lack thereof, of the WSUS environment.

4.) Remove the SSL (HTTPS) site binding for the Default Web Site.
Unsure as to how to do this, new to IIS so learning on the job!
5.) Stop and start the Default Web site.
Will this interfere with any of the other websites hosted on this server - have tutorenterprise, helpdesk, Intranet and our website?
Unfortunately all of this software was installed by a former IT manager, so reasons for the current config are a mystery.
My system is running on Windows Server 2003. We are currently running WSUS V3 SP1. Does this mean that the clientwebservice v-dir should no longer be required? is this purely utilised by WSUS?

Sorry, also - how do I configure WSS to =Not Manage= the WSUS resources in the Default Web Site, which include /selfupdate, /wutrack.bin, and /iuident.cab

try this
1.) Open IIS Manager
2.) Make sure the Selfupdate virtual directory has Anonymous authentication enabled and "Require SSL" should be unchecked.
3.) Make sure the Default Web site has Anonymous authentication enabled and "Require SSL" should be unchecked.
4.) Remove the SSL (HTTPS) site binding for the Default Web Site.
5.) Stop and start the Default Web site.
