Power steering fluid leak

Hey all, I recently got an XK8 and could use some help with a leak. It would appear it is coming from the power steering pump, but I can't tell if it is from the hoses or the pump itself. It's so tight in there! I am losing fluid even when it's not running, so it's a gravity leak. It will go empty within about a week or 2 of sitting. Am I correct that I must take off the pulley to get in there? Once I gain access, since it's a gravity leak, what do you think has failed?
Thanks for the help!

Hi, and congrats with your new XK8. As a new member on this forum, go an introduce yourself here: New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum
First of all, what year is your car, and what is the mileage?
I am rather fresh with Jaguar's my self, but it might be the pump that is leaking, and I believe that is quite affordable. I recomend that you let someone with more experience take a look at your car.
