FD Power Steering Leak

Hi All,

I have a 93 JDM FD that is leaking power steering from the high pressure line coming off the pump. I can feel the frayed/peeling hose about 1/4 inch above where it meets the metal end pictured and it really starts leaking when I turn the wheel.

My questions:
1. Does anyone have a temporary fix that could really slow the leak since it's the rubber hose that is the problem? (I know it's under pressure)
2. Does that hose come off of the metal where it's joined or is it all once piece that needs to be replaced all together
3. Are there any aftermarket lines I can buy or do I have to seek out an OEM JDM line?
4. Is there an easy way to disable power steering all together temporarily without doing a delete?

Thanks so much, I'm a real newb so appreciate the patience!
