Default Question about power steering leak

I have an 07 tahoe that is leaking power steering fluid from what seems to be the bottom of the pump, I cant tell if it is the larger return hose or the high pressure hose. I seems like the larger return hose(If I am saying that right). The steering seem fine and the pump isnt making any noises. Could this be a hose issue, o rings ect. Is there a better way to tell if the leak is a cause of the pump or the hose?

Welcome to the forum. Clean everything as best as possible. Start the engine and see if you can tell where it is coming from.

How often are you needing to add power steering fluid? If less than every 2 months or so, maybe just op off as necessary.
