Power Steering Fluid leak from Steering box Siena 1.6! Help Needed

Hi All,
This weekend I discovered that the Power steering was hard, similar to manual steering.
On checking found that the power steering reservoir was empty.

Got fluid from nearby HP pump and filled it, steering was smooth again. Now, why did it drain out ?

When I moved the car next day, there was a pool of oil below and the power steering level had gone down.

Told a nearby mechanic to check if some rubber tube or pipe is leaking because I had moved the car to new place and RATS Had a field day in the car, biting everything. Even engine light was on continuously.

So the mechanic checked below and told that the leakage is from the steering box and the steering column seal was gone.

Now, Is the diagnostics correct ? Is there a seal which is separately available ? Or the whole steering box needs to be replaced.

Car: Fiat Siena 1.6 100v

Kava Automobiles is quoting 21K for new replacement and suggested repair is possible at around 6K.

Is the repair a reliable solution ? Am in a fix now !!
