I had a leak I couldn't locate too. I finally found it by having someone turn the steering wheel stop to stop, with the engine running (in park). At the ends of the travel the pressure builds up and I found a pin hole in one of the hoses comming from the pump. Mine is also an il so the same system also serves the self leveling rear suspension, which can also develop leaks.

Good luck
