He may be talking about the hose fitting that swivels (for engine movement).

The swivel type have an o ring inside the nut, along with a c clip to click it onto the pipe.

If you say the power steering pump is new. I think the person who installed the pump last didn't bother changing the O-rings that were meant to be replaced. Try replacing the O-ring first and see how things go before you replace the whole thing.
