The power steering hoses use O-ring seals at the quick connect fittings. There are two possible leak points at the steering gear fittings.
^ A leak might occur between the power steering pressure hose or power steering return hose and the hose nut.
^ A leak might occur between the hose nut and the aluminum steering gear housing or power steering pressure return and pump outlet line connector.
