Steering system leak at rotary valve

Steering system leak at rotary valve
Figured I'd move this into the right generation's category, originally posted in the 3rd gen. My steering system in my 02 Type S is leaking at the boot right where the rotary valve meets the steering rack housing.
Looking like it is right in the neighborhood of parts 2 or 34 in the B-33-60
Hope somebody here can give me a hand, has anybody done a remove/replace on this with a write up? Understand I will likely have to drop the rack, is it as easy as draining the PS reservoir, and replacing seals after lowering rack?

Thinking about what I saw last night, there was fluid around the lockring of the return line from the pump. Could it be possibly as simple as tightening that back down?? Will update when I try at home.

Yeah, could possibly be a fitting or o-ring leaking. Clean everything up and recheck for fresh leaks.
