IFS Power steering leak

Hi guys,

I have a 85 4runner that I just completed a hi-steer/IFS steering box install on. Everything is good except for a leak from the side of the steering box. It leaks from what looks like a little hole with a small bearing in it. When I turn left its the worst (it actually sprays out). The steering box didn't look like it had a leak when I got it from the 95 in the junk yard. I ran regular power steering fluid in it for a day, by mistake, before switching to ATF, Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance.

What is this little hole for? What if i just welded it shut?
