Default Power Steering advice, wont stop leaking

Hey everyone, got an 02 civic dx w a 5speed manual. Car was a little difficult to turn so I got a new power steering pump and had that replaced at a local Honda. Left the car with them for the weekend as I was out of town, and I got back and it was leaking. I never noticed any leaking before so I took a quick look and found that the hose connecting from the reservoir to the pump was leaking (pump side of hose). Went back and got that replaced and still no luck, car is still leaking. Included all the O-rings for the power steering pump for when that got installed too.

Anybody have any suggestions what to look at next I'm a little at a loss.

Take it back to dealer to fix the faulty repair?

Kinda lost hope w this dealer. While I did not ask for a diagnosis, I understand that was not the best idea to just have them do the work. But it was clear as day that the hose was **** and the tech didn't make note of that when initially doing the pump. Would figure that they see a bad part to the work they are putting and suggest I get a new hose but I was left out to dry. Got charged for labor on the hose after they did the pump, so preferably would like to avoid this dealer and dishing more money out to them.
