Yeah my power steering is leaking from one side of the hose. It's leaking from the resevior side and the fluid travels down to the end of the hose and drips.

Natural, I would want to replace the hose. Can someone tell me the hose size so I can get the correct width hose from kragen? Also, someone said that since it's a S bend, I need to get a S bend hose.... is that true? Lastly, Will I need to bleed it once the hose is replaced? if so, how?
