Default Power Steering Fluid Leak with my 04 RX 330

Once in a while my RX 330 with 46K miles will leak some power steering fluid. When it happens it is not like a big puddle, just a very small amount. When I move the steering wheel I hear noise like the is low power steering fluid, it eventually goes away after the car has warmed up. I've taken it to two shops, once couldn't trace the leak, the other thinks its the Power Steering pump, but can also be the Steering rack. The later gave me an estimate $479 which includes the the replacement of the Power Steering pump and a flush of the Power Steering fluid. The car steers fine, but would like to get rid of that initial noise and the inconsistent leak. Any suggestion as to what to do will be greatly appreciated, Thanks,
Grace
