Power steering pump leak
So while I was replacing my clutch I noticed my power steering pump had a leak, I had the car on the lift so I checked and it seems like the pump is leaking, but I´m not 100% sure, could it be some hose or something? anyway, is there anything I can do to try to stop the leak before I have to replace the power steering pump? Thanks.

No stopping the pump itself from leaking. Other than replacing it. Most of the time, the hard line that screws in will develop a leak, and you can remove that line and replace the little teflon o-ring to see if that helps. Also, check the rubber line that slides on. The factory hose clamps can wear out and develop a leak. Thats also an easy fix, just use a new clamp (thread style)
I suggest de-greasing it thoroughly and driving the car for the day, then recheck and pinpoint.
