wont steer

ok i pulled it up on ramps today,i couldnt fit all the way under there though,but its def leaking behind the oil pan area,i seen it dripping from there so ill have to drive it somewere and put it up on a lifter and get a better look at
 


if its the rack will leak from behind the trans pan, the lines, pass side next to the trans. the lines are clipped to the sub frame.

the silver tubes in this pic are the start of p/s lines. they run to the steering box part of the rack on the d/s of the car.

ok i added some fluid and drove on the ramps again today and its pouring from the power steering pump in the front of it so its broke/busted some how.whats the possibilities of it hurting the rack and pinion or anything since it ran out of fluid and im not sure for how long it was out but i think there was no way of it being driving like that but they may have drove it like that
 
if you lost enough fluid to make it steer hard then yes you WILL KILL your rack. if left driving that way.

time to figure out if its the pump or the line now. and fix it.
 


ok ive drove it maybe 1/2 mile twice but thats it,im not sure about the previous owners but it isnt making to noises yet,no grinding or anything so maybe its ok
