1990 JDM DA7 Integra Power Steering Leak
Hi
As stated I own a 1990 JDM RHD DA7 Integra. Recently the power steering started leaking from the left side of it. Here's a picture of where it is coming from

It only leaks when I try turning the wheel, and the harder the system works the more it leaks. Turning at a standstill causes a more severe leak while turning with the wheels moving is less severe. I would prefer to keep my PS at all costs, so I'm looking for options to repair or replace it. I couldn't find a repair kit or replacement seals locally yet, and I asked a few friends in Japan and other places to look as well but it doesn't seem like they will be successful either.
As such, I have two questions mainly:
1. would a seal repair kit for a LHD rack fit on an RHD rack? From pictures it seems like the racks are symmetrical in some aspects, and to my knowledge o-rings don't have any specific side to them.
2. does anyone have any RHD rack or knows where I could get one? I would much rather prefer to rebuild my existing kit instead of getting a new one since it's a lot more cost effective.
I'll try to get a better pic tomorrow, it's late at night as I'm posting this.
