The power steering cooling pipe has been bypassed probably because it's leaking. Need to get it replaced.
In the past i have used copper radiator pipe to make a new piece. It's on the low pressure side so good jubilee clips will do it.
Probably expensive to buy new.

that hack bypass does look new - who did it?, I am pretty sure the PS shouldn't have a smaller volume than designed especially on the cooler pipe.

Just so you know the Turbo will only have a TIP, downpipe, oil in from oil filter housing, coolant in, oil gravity drain to sump, coolant return to block and some have an EGT probe
