OH or replace PS pump??

Here in the ME I have a '97 LXi Accord with a PS pump that seems to have a minor leak at the rear (body) O ring. Choice is to re-ring totally at a small cost (cuz labour is low here) or to replace the pump with new (MUCH more expensive).

Suggestions?? I expect to keep the car for 5 more years - NO salt/rust here ;-)

Thanks

Overhaul it. I got all the seals from Honda for my 90 Accord (~$50) a few years ago. Just take the pump apart, clean all the parts, put it back together with the new seals. Anything you get from a junkyard may have the same problem and new ones are $$$.
