power steering leaking

[sljsmc]

My power steering works great, but at some point someone has tightened the output line so tight that there is a groove in the little brass cone inside the pump. Does anyone know a source for that piece or do I have to replace the whole pump just to repair that? The pump works great otherwise I just can't keep fluid in it and needless to say it makes a mess. Thanks Steven
