power steering problem 1.2 16v

My brava 1.2 16V 2001/Y plate has developed a power steering leak from the sensor that plugs into the pump. It is spraying out of the top of the sensor as soon as the engine is on. Anyone know what the sensor is or how to replace it? Fiat want to replace the whole power steering pump which seems unnecessary
