So finally did my PS Pump O-Ring and Fluid Flush..
Man cheapo Honda of México delivered the O-Ring on a simple plain plastic bag with the Part No written in sharpie... Well the MDX flush requires around 2.5 bottles of PS Fluid I ended up sucking part of it after the flush so I could use all 3 bottles and keep a single spare. The cyringue is for sucking the PS fluid out of the reservoir.

Flush went smoothly and my steering is now way lighter than before.. The oil was not dirty it's just the color of the AUTOZONE branded fluid I have been using for months due to my leak.. The leak was caused by a faulty O-Ring which to my surprise it was a Red replacement O-Ring not the OE black one so I dunno how that went bad.
Now I am all leak free and with a smoother steering.
