that sounds like the seal leaking on the vacuum pump - motor oil.the vacuum pump is driven first then the shaft goes threw and drives the steering pump,the pumps are bolted together.just do a search on vacuum pump,you should find alot of info...

There are two bolts and a fitting on the back of the pump. Make sure all three are tight. Yes, if loose they will leak.
