    Power steering leaks

    Im getting very frustrated with this power steering issue... I have replaced the control valve, got all the hose leaks fixed, but now im leaking out of the stud area. Is there any thing I can tighten that will stop this leak? This is my last leak area! Thanks for the help in advance.
