any of the hoses, the fittings, get an exploded diagram or power steering diagram from an OE parts store online and that'll be all the places to check. I'm in the same boat as you, but since I drive my car rarely, I've only added a tiny bit of fluid to it once in 7 years - not really a rush for me.

Same here!

The recent one isn't for now, but I have a feeling the crush washers I used will eventually leak.

And yea they just about leak anywhere.
