Default Power Steering suppliers

Installed fresh upper/lower control arms, motor mounts, ball joints, and centerlink.
Apparently when my motor mount went it stressed the power steering hose so now I need to replace that.
It doesn't seem to be an off the shelf part so I have to order. It looks like I can order just the small molded hose from resevoir to hard line.
I had a bad experience with ordering the other bits (from partsgeek) as someone snagged my card information and tried to use it. (Caught it in time though)

Any reputable online sources for these?

Are you talking about the Power Steering Hose Gear to Cooler 170-997-07-82 ? If so you can just order that from anyone that sells genuine Mercedes parts.

Yeah hopefully thats the only one I need.
I was finding some aftermarket options from the local parts stores but theyre typically less than ideal quality.

I don't know if the model year is right but it I'm pretty sure they're all the same. The bottom 2 look like solid choices. They have return hoses too.

Thanks for the links, just ordered!
The one that was leaking was that short molded hose from resevoir to hardline.
Apparently none of the local stores can get access to that anymore, I replaced with some generic hose until the new one arrives but I dont think its a good longterm solution as its an aggressive bend.
