There could be several things worn in unit that would make it not worth fixing but they last okay if clean oil is all that goes through them. Check to see if it turns free and the shafts don't have mutch side to side or end play. If output shaft has anything other than a very slite amount of play in any dirrection in housing I would be careful. All shafts in unit run on needle bearings,if bearing goes bad shaft usualy is also. The shaft seals are O rings. the rear seal that can be seen is just a dust seal. The spool and cam can go bad and unit won't steer right. Housing gaskets should be same thickness as old if replaced. Does the type he has have a input shaft that steering wheel fits on or input shaft with keyway? Also Some PS housings have a fluid reservoir built in. Body is biger with a filler hole.
