Where Is This Power Steering Fluild Leaking From And Why??

Put all the fluids back in the car today, only thing that has become an issue is the power steering pump. Its leaking the fluid and dripping off from the back of the bracket but I cant figure out exactly where it is coming out from? The line that screws into the side of the pump is tight unless it needs to be really tight? Here is a photo from the back of the pump. You can see the line that connects to the bottom of the pump and the back of the bracket where there is fluid pooled up. It all looks black and the fluid is clear but its the slightly darker oval shape section on the back of the bracket.

Fixed it. It was the rubber O ring on the fitting (the larger O Ring on the fitting). I used the same fitting that was the OEM fitting b/c I could not get it off from the line. That O ring is 17 years old and was hard and stiff. I took the O Ring off from the fitting that came wit the new pump and replaced it on the old fitting. No more leaks. Filled the pump back up and cycled then steering until it was to the full cold mark.

Lesson learned. Lots of old seals and rubber O Rings in these cars, they dont last forever.
