after i inspected further i can now see that the leak is coming from the return line after the banjo bolt where the line bolts to the side of the pump right below the #2 valve cover

The line could be cracked
or if it's coming from the bolt area you may be able to take the fitting off and try and thread tape it and reinstall.
But if the line is cracked, that means it needs replaced.

pull the over flow and go get a new copper washer .. I easy fix


if the line if cracked .. well .. you will have to run a new line( I cut mine short and ran it to the back of the engine with a Bio-Diesel fuel line .. good for B100) ..
