Power steering hose leaking?

Found some drops of oil on the bottom of the power steering hose just before it gets to the cooler. Took it to my mechanic and he said the power steering hose is leaking.

Is this a common problem? I know there was an issue with vibes on early hoses before they came out with the weighted hose, never heard of one leaking.

thanks

Ron
