Default power steering leak.

Attached are a couple of images of a small weep/leak from the pressure pipe of my power steering on my 2014 V70 D5. It was discovered by chance and I have not noticed any other issue.
In order to cure the problem do I have to replace the pipe, or can the lower joint be re-crimped, ( is there a special tool ?) or even fit a jubilee clip. A 4th option would be to live with this very minor irritation, as I don't know how long this weeping has been occurring.
Comments and suggestions welcome.

Cheers
Bob.

Edit: Images should be rotated 90 deg clockwise.
