Default Powersteering tubes au v8

Hi the steel pipe that comes out of the top of the pump is leaking around where the pressed fittings goes to the nut/bolt not game to mess with it its my only vehicle, how can I find a part number no useful auto supplier out here
It's a 01 xr8 the pipe bends over the pump down has a rubber pipe of maybe a foot long then back to steel then under the air con pump and over to drivers side into the steering rack looks like a pain to change what do I call it or is there a number I can quote

Is that the right one would think it's a return line as it goes it the top?

Well done Scott. Changing the nut is fiddly, but still easier than it would be to change the whole line, not to mention a fraction of the price.
