There are four places your pump can leak. First your high pressure line with a banjo fitting could be leaking, it has one seal on each side of the bolt. Second you have the return line, it may need to be tightened or there may be a crack in the rubber hose. 3rd is the vacuum switch in the back, I accidentally broke mine when I changed the pump (it's about 130.00 at the dealer, 110 aftermarket) be careful when removing this plastic part. Finally there is an o ring between the pump and resevoir, if this fails you'll need to syphon all of the fluid, remove the pump, separate both components and replace the o ring. I believe these are all of the places your Power Steering pump can leak, only three seal on the whole thing, two on the banjo fitting and one between the pump and resevoir.
You need to replace the power steering pump. If it is leaking, it is going out.
Clean the power steering are real good check for where the leak is coming from and go from there. For example if a hose is leaking replace hose, if power steering pump seals are leaking replace pump, exc.
I used Lucas stop leak not a fix but it does work....

What will happen if u I added power steering fluid to a leaking power steering pump

We had to replace the rack and pinion in our 2005 T&C. The only symptom we had was the power steering fluid was leaking.
after finding out which of the four hoses is leaking, you buy a new one and replace it.
It is cheaper and best to replace the pump with a remanufactured one.
