    New guy here, but trying to figure out what part is leaking steering fluid. As you can see in the picture it is a pressurized metal hose spraying Dexron III. Can anyone identify what part of the steering assembly this is, and if it is fixable by a rookie DIY mechanic?

    I believe that line is only serviced with the steering rack, you may be able to find someone that can make one up but I don't think it's sold separately.

    Part of the rack, if you tried to remove that line it would likely destroy itself and the fittings.
