Power steering fluid constantly leaking.

I own a 1991 that keeps losing it's power steering fluid. I have to keep adding fluid practically every time I drive it. The funny thing is that there's no signs of any dripping on the driveway. I just recently added some dye to it that I got from NAPA that's suppose to show the location of the leak when you look at it with a black-light. No signs of a leak anywhere. I've looked at it from the top, and I've had it up on a lift. What gives?

A guess

One plausible explanation - a pinhole leak the throws it on to the engine, burns it up, leaves no evidence-, Another theory is that the vacuum portion is leaking and throwing the fluid into the upper plenum.
Question are you using ATF or power steering fluid? The FSM calls for ATF

Thank you FOURWD1, that did the trick. I did do a search prior to posting the question, but my search skills are obviously lacking. I appreciate your help!
