Dodge 2000, 3500 Diesel, Oil leak

I think I have found my oil leak. It looks like its leaking between the power sterring pump and I guess its the vaccum pump. I would like to find some pictures (on the web)of the compontents on the engine.
It must be a seal on the shaft to the power sterring. Can the seal be replaced? ??? Is this a really hard task?
Have 55000 miles and I don't think its covered under the 100,000 warranty.
Before this leak, I never lost oil between changes. I change oil every 5000 miles
*******************************************
Now that I have gotten the info, I ordered the seal $30.00 thats with s/h charges. Installed the seal last weekend, took me around 3 hours, but it was worth it. Have been checking for leaks, not that first drop. This message board has been a very big help for me.

Thanks to all who kepts it up and running.
