Power steering issue

Well two months ago I was making a left hand turn and blew the high pressure line out of my power steering pump. Well my trucks been in the body shop since. Got my truck back and have been filling power steering reservoir while pumping brake and turning steering wheel lock to lock. It whines when I'm holding the brake at red lights and when I accelerate while turning. My question is should I try flushing the hydroboost system or go ahead and replace power steering pump? As far as I know stock pump.
