I came back from an autocross and the next day there was PS fluid on the garage floor.
This is the third spillage in the last few months.

I'm trying to figure out where the source of the leak is.
I looked at the reservoir seal connections and did not notice any apparent issue.
Is it all from the reservoir overflow tube?
Any other things I should inspect?

Messy!

Reservoir and seal look ok
