Default power steering leak...common areas of failure??

my 98 z28 m6 has a power steering leak and i cant figure out where its coming from.

whenever i jack the car up from the k member, power steering fluid drips off the k member. it seems like the fluid is collecting in the k member...and it always seems to drip from the drivers side.

are there any common weak areas in the power steering system on these cars? like a fitting or something on the rack?

thanks. any input appreciated.

check the o-ring that is between the reservoir and the pump
