Default ABS Pump Leaking

My ECU and ABS light have been coming on intermittently the past week. I also found a small amount of Fluid on my Garage floor.

On investigation I found a leak from one of the pipes on top of the pump.

Would tightening this nut resolve the problem.....do I need to purchase a new pump (Serious Dent in my Fund) or is this repairable ????



Thanks Guys

For the leak just tighten up nuts. Have seen this happen on several different cars, if just tightening does not help release a bit( not too much so that air does not get in) and tighten again.

ECU and ABS lights probably are not connected with this, read the fault codes.
