While you have the engine cover off, check the power steering fluid. It's just to the right of your 'B'. Very easy to neglect it, which leads to pump failures. NOTE: Porsches use a lot of unique / synthetic fluids, so DON'T just grab any garden variety fluid you may have on your shelf. Porsches require Pentosin power steering fluid. Easy to find at your local parts store, but probably not what you have on your shelf. Antifreeze needs to be phosphate free as another example.

BTW... this suggestion is off topic to your oil leak adventure. Just giving you a heads-up on something to do while you're digging into the bowels of you Box.
