Power Steering Suction Hose?

Power Steering Suction Hose?
Ok well my power steering fluid is leaking, my high pressure hose is wet so I figured ok it's that, common problem anyway.
But my Suction hose (the silver webbed thing) coming out of the reservoir is wet too...
You think it's leaking out of both? It doesn't leak very fast but I was wondering if I need a specific hose for that or can I just use any hose? I'd like to replace them both just to make sure.
Thanks!

What a nasty mess. First clean it all so if you do anything you'll know if it was effective. Before you get crazy with replacing lines check the conection of the supply line (big one) at the reservoir. If the supply line is wet at the reservoir that's probably a lot of the problem. At least put a hose clamp on it, maybe empty the reservoir and clean it up nice for a good seal.

It's a known problem. Virtually all of them have this problem due to the bull**** clamp. If it's not leaking already, the return hose will start soon.
