Power steering fluid leak

I've got a Power steering fluid leak at the front of the truck.. Pretty sure its right under or near the PS pump..
It will be nearly empty if I don't watch it in about 2 weeks. Steering pump will start to MOAN.. (real good for it, I'm sure)

What is a common place for these to leak from and how hard is it to fix?

Thanks in advance!

I also have an engine oil leak.

Have been told by Peter that my power steering pump is most likely shot, because it is leaking fluid.
