The connection from the power steering fluid reservoir is leaking where it connects to the power steering pump , the rubber pipe is connected to an elbow with a jubilee clip and that is fine , the elbow just seems to push into the power steering pump and has an orange rubber o ring on it , it seems loose but there is no fixing or circlip , should this just be a push in or pull out connection , does it just need a new o ring???? I know its only the low pressure feed pipe but it seems odd , it is dripping from where this metal elbow pushes into the pump ???

It is a ZF pump but VAG list no spares, there may be an O ring under there or it may just be sealed in, not sure.
