Can I get a visual of this hose

Im trying to isolate possible issues for a constant whine my car has. The whine increases with rpms

Im starting with power steering and I want to check this hose that was recalled back int he day, also the ps reservoir as well could be in question.

I know it says where the hose is but I wanna have a visual of it before I tackle it. I haven't checked yet if my fluid is low or is leaking but I will when I get home. Also I will try to take the belt off and run the car without it.

Thanks in advance.

It's cold and my car is on the 4th floor of the parking garage. I don't have the time or interest in pulling it in and up on a lift so this will have to do.

Every 5.5 I have owned has a whining noise. Unless you are leaking PS fluid it could just be the nature of the beast.

I have the 5.4 from a ml55 in my w202 and it doesn't whine at all.

My C55 has pretty good whine to it, and I think it's the PS pump itself (but I can't exactly pinpoint it). In the end, it's got 205,000 miles so I'm just leaving it as is....
