Default 95 LS.Power steering pump o-ring

My 95 LS seem to be loosing power steering fluid just about every 3 weeks.From research and always seeing a leak underneath, I know it is the o-ring that you guys always mention.When I am facing the car and underneath, exactly where is this O-ring located?

its not always the o-ring.
it could be the high presure hose, the pump completely dying, or the rack itself.

The O-ring is the size of a nickle and fits around a small pipe on the bottom of the fluid chamber where it slides into the actual P/S pump.
