Where is the leak ? On the rubber (actually neoprene) hose back to the resoviour tank, or on the steel high pressure lines ?

At a joint or just in the middle of a line ?

If the fluid is coming from the connection into the pump, it could be that it has fractured on the flared end, this sometimes happens if the accumulator sphere needs replacing as it creates shock waves in the pipe, I have had this happen several times on diesel XMs. The pipe should be available from Citroen.

Just to clarify :

There are no high pressure hoses at the regulator or pump. Its the rigid piping that carry the high pressure.
