Arrow ***Help with identifying a part*** RESOLVED

Hey guys. I have a power steering leak coming from the front and narrowed it down to this part that is installed inline on the hose that goes to the power steering reservoir. I believe its a power steering fluid filter but I am not sure and I am also not sure where to get one. A google search yielded more confusion than understanding since I did not see any that looked like mine. Appreciate the help in advance guys!

Hi, just to clarify- at the left or lower of the pic- is that the a/c compressor?

If you have DELETED the SLS rear hydraulic dampers and fitted standard units, then you don't need the pump on the front of the engine.

I removed ALL the pump, valve block and hoses from the system and fit new PS feed hose and return lines.

You can then use DEXRON ATF for the fluid.

Thanks for the responses guys! I believe the compressor is on drivers right of the part. It is connected to what looks like a the pump that motorcarman mentioned. I took the old one off and it looks like an inline power steering filter so I just replaced it for now with a new aftermarket one from autozone. So far no issues but most importantly no leaks! I used Edelmann Elite Power Steering Filter Part number 70699 and changed the connectors to 3/8 inch to fit the hoses. I have included the link below to the piece in case anyone needs it!
