Sucks to be away from home (and tools) and have a problem. Hope you got it figured out. Especially if it's just the power steering reservoir overflow tube blowing fluid all over the top of your block. Which, is a crummy place for that tube to terminate. I'm looking to buy a longer tube and run it down to the bottom of the engine bay. Just, got to be motivated to get into the engine compartment, take the hose off, to go the parts store, come back and install.

power steering fluid has a very characteristic "oily" smell, think WD40 on steroids
