96000 miles with no other major problems. The size of the oil spod is about 2 inches on smooth concrete. Where do I add fluid or sealer? Can it be a hose or a seal causing the problem?

    laf. Look under your ML and try to locate the leak; it would probably be the steering rack and pinion but when it leaks it is more likely to have oil spods off center.
