Default Rack and Pinion leak????

When it rains it pours: Well now for the second problem in as many days. I noticed fluid leaking from a "cap" on my rack and pinion setup. If you were to lay on your back and look up at the engine it is a small plastic(?) cap with 4 indentions on it with a nice little drip from it. I noticed it AFTER I took it to a Dodge Dealership to get the alignment fixed. Do any of yall know if this "cap" would have been messed with during a front end alignment??

Hopefully you dont have to get the rack replaced. Just got mine done at the dealership and it was about 1300 bones after my friends that work there hooked me up. They said it would be about 2500 without the "Dodge friends discount". Hopefully that is not the case for you though.
