While pulling the engine I did not see the power steering return hose was still attached to the gear and I ripped the return port out of the body. Now I need to replace it. The cap has been missing since I had the car so I would really like to replace it with a complete unit. Any suggestions?

post picture of the pump housing showing the return port and the back side of the pump. You may be able to have the return port re-welded.

Awesome because NO ONE in the country has one in stock. I was getting ready to see if I could get it welded back on.

Rob no need to dig any further. Thank you though.

While on this adventure I found an AWESOME welder. He welded it back on with no reservations. Didn't even have to disassemble it.

Thank you Rob. I will keep it in mind.

Also thank you for the valve cover. I just finished sanding it. I spent WAY WAY more time on it then I care to admit. lol
