I seem to have a leak from the upper connection to the steering rack. The obvious thing seems to be check it's tight enough - any advice welcome as have never touched this kind of system before?

Depends on whether it is a connection like a brake pipe or what is common now just a pipe that pushes in with an o ring around it and a clamp to hold the pipe from falling out, in which case get a new o rin and then undo the clamp, pull the pipe out and replace the o ring
If it is a flare nut fitting then it may just need a nip up.
the other possibility is a cracked pipe
so just get in there and have a look, best of luck BTW
Thanks for the advice - soon as the weather clears up a bit I'll take a look.
