Default Where is it leaking?

The rack on my 1992 940 was leaking last year but upon inspection it wasn’t the rack itself. It was one of the narrow return pipes on the outside of the rack.(similar to metal brake pipe but not identical). The relevant part was no longer available so I had to go to a local steering rack specialist to have a pipe made up to match. Web search will show you various firms purporting to be power steering specialists but I found that they will only deal with the rack itself, (seals etc) not the associated pipework.
