Default power steering leak

before i dive right into it just looking for some insight. Im pretty sure it is my pump that is leaking but if anyone has had this problem before advice would be cool.
2001 xj 4.0
problem: seems to be a major leak of power steering fluid that drips directly onto the engine mount beneath the intake. before i start searching around online for stuff maybe a quick tip would be good. . . possible hose leak or pump leak?. . . i will be locating and checking the pump this weekend. Going to assume this has happend before and hopefully that person checks this out.

thanks!

Any part of the system can leak. Pump, hoses, fittings.. The only effective way to find it is to wipe everything clean and start looking for the leak.
