I attached the process on the line from the pump to the gear. This would be considered the pressure line.

Let me know if you need more info. Thanks

Okay. Can you get a picture of the area? We need to be mindful that the power steering fluid and transmission fluid are both the same color. Basically they can be easily mistaken for each other so while you may be correct, I just don't want us to get confused on that. Thanks
