Power steering reservoir/hoses installation

Due to leaking, I'm replacing the power steering reservoir and hoses. The old BMW clamps don't hold anymore. They did for a while, but old hoses are starting to leak again. I'll disconnect the forward lower one to drain it out. I'm not sure where the rear reservoir connects. I assume it's the rack and pinion return line. The Prestone fluid is $12 a bottle.

It's getting pricey using one a week.

Any tips on replacement?
