the 'vane tandem pump' is fuel pump. There are two pumps, one that actually pressurizes and delivers fuel to the engine and one that moves fuel from one tank to the other (think of our tank like a set of saddlebags). The other oil line to tank, i'd bet that is the other Powersteering oil line, as our cars do not have engine oil tanks. The p/s lines leak, all of the time. I've probably replaced weeping hoses 3 or 4 times. The factory clamps are poor. Out of warranty, the fix is to cut off the oe clamp and use a good quality hose clamp.
Nothing worrying about the history to me.
