Power steering pump leaks?

I noticed some (red in color) oil drips under the truck tonight...... Traced it over to the power steering pump. My question to everyone: Is there a common power steering part (pump), hose, or O-ring, that often goes bad on (around) the power steering pump or is it random parts failing. It appears right now that one of the hose connections or shaft seal on the pump is leaking. I've got to let it cool down a little first before I can check. Thanks

Check your hose clamps. The factory clamps sometimes get weak and start leaking.
