2005 P/S hose

my power steering hose with the weight on it rubbed through and is now leaking. It is the one that goes to the bottom of the power steering pump, this would be the pressure line correct ?

If it goes from the pump up to the hydro boost then its the pressure line. High pressure flow then goes from hydro boost to steering gear and i think both of these have the rubber isolators or "weights" and are larger diamete. And from steering gear low pressure lines go to cooler then to bottom fuid reservoir. There is also a 3/8 low pressure return line from hydro boost that T's into return line at bottom of reservoir.

it is the only one attached to the p/s pump (not the gear) so i guess that would make it the pressure side. called a couple of dealers today one said that nobody in the country has one, i think i made him mad though when i said i didnt feel like holding for a fourth time. it is not leaking bad right now it is just sort of oozing out. is it ok to run ATF in these sytems ? i got some lucas trans stop leak

could check at a local hydrualics shop, they should have same size high pressure lines and might be able to put the right fittings on there. or here: https://www.dodgeparts.com/oe_parts_catalog.html

ATF+4 is the recommended fluid.
