It looks like a screw. The one i circled. It sits behind the power steering pump. When the car is running it drips out

Hi gents. Thank you for the replies. It ended up being the #10 screw on picture

Its a diy repair. Just remove the belt and power steering pulley. Then unscrew the 4 torq bolt securing the power steering pump. Pull the power steering pump away from the engin. Water will run out fro the water pump. Then its a 8 allen key to remove and replace with new screw. Then reverse all the steps.

Then fill the water bottle and bleed the system. Run motor for a few km’s to check for leakes and hopefully it will look like this

Best is clean your engine bay then take it for a spin and check for leaks. Its hard to just say off the bat. My leak was leaking on the driver side.
