Power steering leaks can be difficult to find. If there is fluid all around the pump, you will need to clean the area with degreaser. Then you can look for fresh fluid leaking. As Tom suggests, it is likely a hose or could be the pump.

my guess (and that's what I do best) is that the seals on the rack and pinion are bad- they do that-
