In my research of my power steering issues nothing having to do with the o rings or line leaks were related to noises, only the loss of power assistance and significant effort to turn.
Only other car that I've dealt with power steering issues has a box set up, and only time I had any sort of noises was due to fluid level, and typically needed a decent "bleeding" lock to lock a dozen times. My jeep liked to over heat fluid a lot, causing weapage and bubbles often. Found the pump and box were just both on the way out.
