Power Steering - Pump Sweating / Corrosion of Pipe

Hi All - I had my power steering checked - ( part of service )
I have been advised that it is sweating ?? and the downpipes are beginning to corrode.
I have been advised - new pump / pipes ( 200 pounds plus ) with labour costs - an outlay of GBP 420.
Any advice on this guys ??
a) What causes the sweating ?
b) Has anyone refurbished the existing pump ?
c) Can anything be done to stop the corrosion ?
Thanks for your input
Michael

Hi there, I see that Scorpio man has already answered you but even to replavce all the pipes should not be more that about £120 , plus of course labour but as he says we will have a look at the meeting....
