Umm... Is that right? The manual is a bit confusing because I don't think they clarify where the return hose is.

They list their instructions as:

1. Remove the accessory drive belt (1). Refer to Page 7-45.
2. Remove the oil in the power steering reservoir (5).
3. Remove the power steering supply line (6) from the reservoir.
4. Remove the return hose from the power steering pump.
5. Remove the high-pressure hose (2) from the power steering pump.
6. Remove the power steering pump by removing the two bolts (3) attaching it to the engine block.
7. Remove the reservoir if necessary, by pressing out the c-clip (4) using a suitable tool.

The only hose I see on the pump is the High-Pressure Hose.
