Default Rack & Pinion may be leaking

Has anyone had any issues with their R&P? I finished my 30k service yesterday on my truck with a buddy of mine and while I had it on the rack I noticed that the R front boot appeared moist. I dont have any tell tale signs in my garage (no dripping or anything on the ground). My power steering level was just a little bit low, but I frankly I had not checked it in a while.
Just wondering if anyone had any issues at all with it. The truck runs fine and I have not had any issues at all... gotta love it.

check the clamps on the hoses first before you assume it's a R&P....DCX has many problems with not gettin clamps tight enough and then fluid drips down on the boot.....if it is coming from the hose then get a small hose clamp and replace the original one and problem solved
