GDEtrailer: your photo is of a brake master cylinder
Oldwizard1 show the pump with a non-metallic connector
Yes, I realize the photo I posted IS the Master cylinder..
OP mentioned that the item they posted has a line up to what they called the "brake reservoir".
The reason I posted that photo is to show the OP what the master cylinder AND BRAKE RESERVOIR LOOKS LIKE and the DIFFERENCE between the two is unmistakable..
Basically they have traced the line from the power steering pump up to the remote power steering fluid reservoir.
I wanted the OP to understand clearly what the brake reservoir looks like and where it is located..
Power steering pump is leaking, needs replaced, absolutely under no circumstance put an "fix its in a can" in that system like "bars leak", that stuff can and will damage your steering system beyond repair and you do not want to have to buy a replacement steering gear box..
Only put in recommended hydraulic fluids in your power steering system and make darn sure it does not go empty.. That pump when run dry or with improper fluid will have internal parts grinding together grenadeing your steering gear box in the process.
