Hey I noticed over the past 6 months I lost a slight amount of PS fluid. The fluid is in between the MIN and MAX. Now what I can see is that From where the piping attaches to the reservoir I can see black foamy dried up PS Fluid that has dripped and dried up all around the reservoir. Its a very slow leak that coming right from the connecting point from the piping to the reservoir. How can I stop this leak??

You don't actually stop it...you fix it. Drain the reservoir, and pull the hose away from the reservoir to look for exactly how/where it is leaking. Maybe you just need a new hose. That would be a lot cheaper than a new reservoir. How long has it been since the ps fluid was changed? Might be a good time to do so.

probably just the oring at the connection has failed
remove hose and inspect- replace

see DIY instructions for flushing ps fluid, do that as JDJ said,
every 60 is the book suggestion- use HONDA PS fluid with its secret sauce

Fluid level should be between min and max- not at max--
Good catch keeping an eye on it before really bad problem
