The boiler condensate might be contributing to the damp a but, but I reckon most will be runoff from whatever that brick thing on the right is - unflashed, unguttered sloping concrete "roof" without even a drip ledge.

A few points to consider:
Hole through wall from condensing boiler is horizontal rather than sloping to exterior,
Hole through wall is not sealed, (suggestion sprayfoam as far 'in' as possible, with a goodly bead/surface of a quality sealant),
No insulation on condensate pipe,
Condensate pipe draining to brickwork,
Condensate pipe does not connect to foul water sewer,
All fixable, just time consuming.

How much of a problem is this?
That’s a condensation pipe from the boiler I think? It’s a pipe from the boiler and it’s not going into the black pipe and the black pipe just goes into the soil
Lots of damp brick.
