    The solenoid has a rubber o ring where it fits to the steering rack and this can be changed quite easily, the solenoid to valve body looks to be threaded in, and if this is where it is leaking rather than running around from the O ring I am not sure if it would come undone.

     

    Unless its leaking excessively I would be inclined to just keep an eye on it and see how it goes, as I said the O rings is easy the body thread seal maybe better to get a good second hand one.

    Provided it is not effecting the steering a weep there will not have an impact on the MOT, you may get an advisory of a leak to cover the tester.
