Default Volvo S60T5 loosing power steering fluid

Hello everybody
I got a Volvo S60T5 2001 which is loosing PS fluid.....Not much in spring-summer-automn, but a little more in winter !!
I am using Pentosin CHF11S to top it off...
I cannot see from where it leaks....I replaced the clamps on the PS tank...Rack is ok...
I am wondering if there are some sealant additive that I could add in my PS tank??
Thanks in advance for your help

Check the clamp on the front of the pump.
