Default power steering leak

I have recently noticed a powersteering leak coming from where the brake booster should be but i believe its called the hydroboost if i remember correctly is there a way to fix it without buying a new one or is it better to just buy new or could i go with a salvage yard booster also how common is it for them to go out and if if its better to go buy new where is a good place to get a cheap one at the cheapest i have found is 180 dollars from rockauto.com if you know of another place please let me know or if i can fix it without replacing it please let me know your impute is greatly appreciated as i am new to the diesel game i have a 1996 k1500 with the 6.5

Would help if you clean it up and locate exactly where the leak is coming from, could just be a hose.

I have cleaned it off and found where its coming from it coming from where it looks like you can split it into two different parts where the seal in the middle on the bottom side is is where its leaking from
