Howdy!

Newer owner & first time poster. I purchased my 16 LR4 HSE back in January and have put just under 5k miles on it. While changing the oil at 3k, I noticed a leak in the power steering line near the "U" turn on the passenger side of the steering gear. Then on a recent road trip I noticed the volume in the reservoir was approaching the minnum line. Reading the service manual, i'm confident i'll be able to complete the job myself. But I do have a few questions and I'm hoping to recive some assistance. I'm planning to do this job durring the next oil change

Are there other jobs i should do while in there?
Any tips or tricks on removing the lines and fluid?
Any special tools that are nice to have?
Is this the correct pressure line? (https://parts.landrovercary.com/oem...SQ4_8LUBOHWS9mm1LMUxp4qxYyYR_kt-zFnE_jW5QgRcr)

Please see the pictures below, and thank you for reading!

Nice rig. How is your project going? I have a seeping leak, not dripping so I'm planning to replace one of the fluid lines but it doesn't look like that one. The way I verified the correct pressure line was by matching the path of the tube I need to replace in the future to the available pressure lines from Land Rover.
