Perfect timing for this post !!!!
I am scheduled for service at the local MB dealer in two days.
One item they are to evaluate is leaks around my power steering box. A quick glance while making the appointment, the service manager suggested it was a leaking hose, and easy to fix.
It's hard to type with your fingers crossed

.
At least now, if they mention seals, I can talk intelligently about a reseal job versus rebuilt/new replacement.
It is not leaking bad, just making a mess of things on that side of the engine compartment.
No floor drips, but I hate leaks

!!
I will post a follow up at the end of the week, depending on the nature of the corrective work required.
