Default Problem finding power steering reservoir replacement

I noticed some power steering fluid leaking. It looks like it's coming from the power steering reservoir and/or the hoses that lead to it.

Eckler's has the hoses for around $40.00 each but I can't find a replacement for the power steering reservoir.

Anybody know where to get the parts at a reasonable price?

Thanks John,
It looks like the leak is coming from the hose that goes from the reservoir to the pump. I found it at Corvette Central for $32.95.

The reservoir is OK. I ordered all 3 hoses. I figure I should change them all.
