lol if you're leaking it from the column then it's from you pouring it on there.

More than likely it's from the pump to the gear box. There's a how-to here:

1st page has the bulk of the info and the 2nd has picks.

I'm having the same problem and just bought some hose to replace the leaky ones. Oreilly's wants around $22 a ft. I got it off ebay for around $18 shipped for 4ft. Here's the link to the ones I bought:

It's probably your gear box then.
