Yeah, I'll keep an eye on it. The level hasn't been going down. So, hopefully it's fine. I saw the leak myself coming from the rear valve cover so I'm sure that's the leak. I was surprised.. LOL

I'll try and snap pictures under the valve covers to show you guys how clean it us under there. Well at least let's hope it's clean. I'm sure it will be though, since I change the oil every 3-5k miles always with a synthetic.

As I recall, no seals get pressed onto the shaft. I don't remember what puller I used. I went to autozone and borrowed one with their loan a tool program. I told them that I needed a pullet for my power steering pump, and they gave me a puller and it worked perfect.

Hyper, I have similiar problems like yours. My rear valve cover leaks little. But the power steering pump also looks leak. I wants to replace both valve cover gaskets and fix the P.S. pump leaks with the power steering pump seal kit (Gates from Rock Auto.Com). Did you already replaced the valve cover gaskets. Here is pictures of my P.S. pump leaks. I was confused with leaks from P.S. pump or valve cover gaskets! The power steering fluid level was little less in max. I will check the level for few days if it get down more and more. Steering don't make any noises when I turn or no problems.

Yeah, I've replaced both valve cover gaskets. It was in fact the valve cover gasket leaking. I think it's the same issue with yours. My power steering pump looked the same way, but it's now dry. I didn't touch the pump at all, just the valve cover gaskets.
