My wifes power steering hose is leaking. Its a 1999 Grand 4wd v8. Its leaking at the fitting that goes into the front of the fluid resevoir. Is this the return or high pressure?

watch it when it's leaking. If its a dribble, its the return. If it sprays with any force, its the pressure side. The PS system runs around 200+psi, so even a pinhole will look like a geyser if it's the pressure side.
