Common problem or not, PS leak?

This is my third one since I've owned the van in April.

The first one was about to go out so I replaced it with a reman. Leaked as soon as I put fluid in it. This one started leaking a few weeks after I put it in.
Being that I have a few other projects going on, I decided to put some Lucus in it, it worked on everything else I've ever owned was my thinking. Plus now, they offer the two bottle buy back if it doesn't work.

The first bottle slowed it down, but after a few days it opened back up again, & same for the second. The guy at advance said that he has more returns on PS pumps. It's just a seal, what could be so difficult about it?

Looks like I'll have to test the Lucus oil buy back policy.

Thanks,

Where is the leak at?

There is an O ring in the pressure out line connection.
There is also a O ring in the reservoir to pump junction on the ones I have.
