Hello Everybody:

Last year I bought a 2003 lx470, I am very happy I can own it, but from 2022 I found some oil leak to generator, and the generator was bad, so I changed 1 generator and it becomes bad after 3 month, I ask a repair shop to check, they tell me the power steering pump leak, So I change the generator, power steel pump and a power steering hose, now the generator was bad again, I found the oil leak again, and I confirm it was not the engine oil, but power steering pump was new, I don't know where leak, can someone helps me ?
 
Two things.

Are you using a good branded power steering oil? Cheap oil will leak. Post a picture of the leak.

You probably used a non toyota alternator.
 
The alternator is toyota original, and I will try to use branded power steering oil and if I have time, I will post a pics, thank you very much
