89 runner steering gear leak ??

I'm in the middle of changing my timing belt, etc and had noticed that power steering fluid kept disappearing. Now that 22 years of dirt,grime,grease and road debris are cleaned out and I have the radiator out. I notice that the frame is wet underneath the steering gear. Is there a gasket to change on this or is this a replacement item?? Thanks...

Gasket? No. Seal? Yes. However, you would be best off finding a non-leaking unit and swapping it.
