 * the ‘old code’ might be in _header.php _or _footer.php_ of your currently active
   theme, or be added via a plugin.

 * I looked at both files but not seeing a code which looks like what this link 
   is suggesting?

 * try to temporarily disable **all **plugins to see if that removes the tracking
   code;
    if yes, reactivate one plugin at a time to locate the plugin responsible
   for adding the tracking code.
 * what theme are you using?
 * can the new webmaster not support you with the issue?

 * The new webmaster is charging me only for “consultation” so I will have to do
   most of the leg work myself but he said he will look at it later and did confirm
   the locations you mentioned, will let you know how it goes thanks.

 * What’s the URL? Might be able to point you to the right file (footer.php / header.
   php / etc) or plugin.
