Power Steerin Leak

Few months back I replaced all the power steering lines on my 1 ton, everything been working just fine but I noticed a couple leaks. When the engine is running, right at the pump on the high pressure line, you can literally watch power steering/tranny fluid drip. The other leak isn't hardly bad at all, but its located right where the brake pedal push rod goes into the hydroboost (push rod for lack of better terminology).

As for the high pressure line leak I literally cannot tighten the line anymore without stripping either the threads or the head, so is it possible to remedy this problem with some good ol' plumber tape?

What's the best solution for the leak at the brake pedal?


If ya'll need pictures ill post a few later on
