2002 W210 Power Steering Reservoir leak

Not sure if this is the right location for my question, so apologies in advance, I'm new here. I have a leak coming from my power steering reservoir and I could use advice on how to address this issue. If any one on the forum has had removed one of this unit's, I would appreciate any suggestions you could provide. I attached a picture of the reservoir for you review. Thanks

Mine blew the high pressure side PS line and while they were replacing mechanic discovered it had a crack somehow and was slowly leaking fluid. It had been dripping fluid for years before the line blew and he discovered it while apart.

2002 W210 Power Steering Reservoir leak

Thanks davmil2002, that’s what I am trying to prevent. Right now the leak is confined to the bottom of the reservoir, all the hoses seem to be in good shape. It’s just really difficult to remove it to inspect.

As I recall the hose wasn't that bad (~$125), but was billed 6 hours getting it installed. The reservoir was only $75.
