Engine Bay Hydraulic Fluid Leak

Well, I thought after adding hydraulic fluid (also known as power sterring fluid...lol) to my '90 560 SEL that my sagging rear end was fixed. It doesn't sag anymore, which is good and tells me the accumulators and rear end hydraulic system parts are all good. Sadly, I found that there is a leak out of some part in the engine bay. Can anyone please tell me what this part is??? The hose that leads out from underneath the hydraulic fluid reservoir goes into the part that is leaking. It is right next to the A/C compressor. It has allen wrench head bolts. One of them was loose (which is right where the leak is coming from) and when I tightened it, it got kinda tight, then on the next turn, got loose again !!!! ARRRGGHHHH!!!!! So, it looks like I need a seal maybe for this part, whatever it is. Can someone tell me what I need to get please .
