Have a small leak with the power steering on the 03' LS. One shop says it's the pump & lower line (pressure) hose and other shop says it's the pressure hose and return hose. It's so crowded up there that I suppose until some parts are removed, won't be sure exactly what's needed. But the return hose/line seems to be pretty pricey, both want about $215 and I think they're both aftermarket. I haven't had much better luck online looking yet either. Anyone had any of this work done, good/bad luck with any certain brand(s) of pumps/hoses, etc.?
 
Not answering your actual question, but I would like to point out that the most common power steering leak seems to be from the pressure sensor. This sensor is either screwed onto the pump, or in the middle of the high pressure line (I'm not sure which LSes got which). I'd make sure that it is not this sensor that is the problem, as it is fairly inexpensive (<$50).
