Before I start let me stress that unless your are ABSOLUTELY, 100% certain you are looking at the correct receptacle, DO NOT add fluid. There are also receptacles for Brake Fluid and Windshield Washer fluid. If you mix ANY of these up you will create a disastrous, possibly fatal situation. Do not guess! Also, there are different types of steering fluid so you MUST be certain you are using the correct type.
Somewhere under the hood, usually near the area right in front of the steering wheel, should be a boxy looking receptacle with either a screw top or a flip up cap. It should be clearly marked with raised letters "Steering Fluid." When you remove the cap there should be an embossed line indicating the maximum fluid level.

The resovior is on the drivers side near the fender, it has a green cap on it. Use only VW fluid or you will have huge problems.

The first thing i would check is all 4 abs sensors at the wheels.You can do this with a volt meter set on ac voltage and spin the wheel if it generates voltage at all on the meter its good.
SOURCE: lower intake manifold gasket leaking 02 Olds Silhouette
This is basicly a very time consuming job rather than a physically hard one to complete. In order to replace the gasket you must remove the intake plenum,throttle body, and misc. vacuum hoses. The wiring harness connections must also be disconnected. Finally the intake manifold is exposed. The bolts holding the manifold to the block are removed exposing the leaking gasket. After removing the push rods and placing them in the correct order to be replaced the gasket and sealants can be removed. Finally replace everything in reverse order. Be sure to consult a GM manual for correct bolt torch specs. The correct specs for the manifold bolts usually come with the gasket. Make sure to change your oil a few times after this job in case any coolant entered the block. Also,change the thermostat and the oil seal on the distributor half shaft cap while you have everything off. Good Luck

Oops, sorry about that.....
The power steering fluid reservoir is located just behind the drivers
(LHD) headlight, just forward of the washer fluid reservoir.
The
reservoir has a green cap on it and a plastic trim panel to conceal the
sides, it is circled here:
