Powersteering fluid leaking just below rag joint

I'm trying to figure out the source of a leak. It appears to be coming from the rack and pinion below the rag joint, close to where the line bolt in place. I checked and all lines are tight. I was wondering if the rack is sensitive to heat, as I have a custom fabricated turbo system and one of the pipes is very close to the area that is leaking. I have checked the rubber hoses and none are burnt or leaking. Any help would be appreciated, thx.

their are seals inside the rack, and when they go she will leak from the inside out.
