Passenger side? Check you ps lines and reservoir. Get the fluid off the rubber. It will cause it to swell

Yep. Coming directly from whichever pulley is on that side, furthest to the right.

I am not a smart man. It’s very shiny now, though. Should help find it.

Update - Power steering for sure. Can't tell exactly how or where, but right beneath the fill cap.

Keep us posted. There’s a line that can be replaced without dropping the engine and one that requires engine drop. Hopefully It’s the one that doesn’t require engine drop.
