I had a leaking Steering Rack that I think I got lucky with.
Noted oil on both left and right side but especially on the left side.
Then I noticed that the gaiter and clamp on the right side had slipped and the clamp was not securing the end of the gaiter.
I could easily slide the gaiter end along the steering rod. See photos below showing my finger.
I removed the clamp, slid the gaiter to a thicker part of the steering rod and reapplied the clamp.
Power Steering reservoir was low, so I topped it off with a sealant - ATP Automotive AT-205 which
I read about here on this forum - buy it on Amazon.

No more leaks but I'm going to keep a watch on it.
