Power Steering Pump
I pulled my Power Steering Pump today because it's leaking, and the tag on the back said
HBA DX
76A 5C
I can't find any information about the first line, and second line is the date. Does anyone no where I can get more information, and possibly a rebuild kit. Thank you in advance.

I am going to say your 76 has a swapped in 428 and its probably a car motor. So...
Leaking where, behind the pulley? At the line connection points? I bet you will have to go to the local parts house and buy a rebuilt one. I call first and ask about a core exchange fee.

Is it a Sagniaw (case like a canned ham) or a thin fill neck, or a large fill cap style?

Yeah, we were told the motor came from a galaxy 500 police interceptor. I will take some pictures tomorro, and post them. Its leaking from between the reservoir housing and the pump. I took it a part, and there is a o-ring around the pump that seals against the reservoir. I was hoping to find a kit to just replace all the seals. Thanks

I'm sure they exist. In fact, there is a company now (finally!) that specializes in just selling sealing and rebuilding kits for things like p/s pumps and alternators and such. Sorry I can't remember the name.
And some NAPA store somewhere probably has that exact o-ring seal by itself. If'n you can find that right store!
Easy to see the differences that 77&79 was asking about. The old Ford "Thomsen" pumps had a very small fill neck with a little steel dipstick with a hook style pull handle.
The later (better) pump had a larger fill neck with a plastic half-turn twist top and straight shorty dipstick.
The "canned ham" Saginaw (now Delphi) pump (best according to most) was only on certain few Fords, but was practically universal on GM vehicles of the era. So if you've ever popped the hood of a Chevy you probably saw a Saginaw pump.
You can see some different ones on this page: WILD HORSES 4X4 Off-Road Bronco Parts and Accessories (is it ok to link to other websites to show an image? I didn't check the FAQ's and rules before doing that)
We don't even show the old stock Thomsen pumps because they're made of hen's teeth these days. And generally not as desirable for modified trucks with bigger tires anyway. Stock they were fine as far as I know, but the later ones were better in my own experiences.

The Ford/Thompson P/S pump seal kit is the same for ALL 1967/77 FoMoCo vehicles.
Note: New & rebuilt P/S pumps do not come with the pulley.
