Hey everyone, i tried to do a quick search and didn't find much so was hoping you all could help me out.

So first off with the picture I have, I would like to know if the hose/line that is leaking is indeed the power steering pressure hose or a different power steering line?

and second, is this a DIY job or will this require a dealer/mechanic?

Any input would be great, Thanks guys!!

This happens on 02 maximas all the time...Its a DIY'r for sure, Ive done like 3 of them. just buy the part - replace and done - takes about 2 hrs (really should be 1 hr but its tedious and a VERY tight spot)
