Default Where is there a O-ring in the power steering pump set-up?

To make a long story short I swapped out power steering pumps on my car the other day. I installed the new one but noticed a leak. I also noticed that I was supplied with 2 o-rings with the new pump. I already threw out the old pump so I'm unsure of where these go. My guess would be the reservoir but I have a very small ring also. Any would be appreciated!

I just did mine the power steering pump has one o ring one it.The locations is between the plastic reservoir and the pump.There are two metal clips you need to remove them pull off the reservoir and thats where the oring is.The high pressure line two small o rings one one the high side of the pump and one other oring goes into the rack.

Pete, so all i need to do is put the one in between the resorvoir and pump? I did get one small O-ring but its tiny I will post a pic in a sec. The small one should go on the end of the high pressure line?
