Default Power steering leak

03 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi. I have a leak on what I thought was the high pressure line, so I replaced it. It seemed to help for a couple days then started leaking again. I can visibly see fluid spraying out but can not tell where it's actually spraying from. looks like it might be where the high pressure line comes out of the bottom of the pump, or maybe at the sensor. any ideas? I've already replaced the o-rings once and no difference.

be VERY careful. high pressure fluid coming out of hoses or steel lines can cut your hand VERY bad. one story was a guy got cut from a high pressure grease hose. he got so much in his blood he died. i had a teek once. i tried slowing it by running gear grease in it, not sure it helped.
