Well I finally got under the car to take some pictures, this is what the PO did with the power steering pump, its from a Ford Saphire, note the fuel line instead of hydraulic hose, its nice and shiney, due to the fact that it is saturated with p/s fluid, also note that the hoses are joined at both ends with clamps, not proper fittings.
You may be able to see the p/s fluid dripping, she leaves her mark wherever we go
. Bought 1.5m hydraulic hose today and am going to replace the fuel line with it, also got clamps which I may or may not use, going to remove both the pipes first to see if I can get the proper connections, if not going to use the clamps, they are the ones that you have to 'pince' closed. Hopefully if the p/s fluid stays in for longer than a day the steering might improve a bit.
