Hydraulic steering ram

I have the hynautic steering. I knew that I had a leak cause the tank was empty. Found a bleader screw leaking, tightened up thought I was ok. Filled the tank,pumped air up and started to blead system and found a pin hole in the adjustment bar end not the piston end of the ram the other end. I knew that the pipe was hollow but,how is fluid getting in? Is there a seal on that end of the ram that could be leaking? This is the end of the ram that is mounted to stringers not the steering tie bar.

Thanks in advance
Frank
