I would look elsewhere in the hydraulic power steering system for where the metal flakes originated.

2002 Chevy Silverado 2500 hd. My power steering went out but I still have brakes, what is broke?

Steering and Brakes are totally unrelated.

Steering wheel, steering pump, steering rack, wheels.

Brake pedal, brake servo, brake calipers and discs.

Take it to a garage.

Power Steering warning light and then loose power steering. Chevy Malibu 2007

It's either the pump or the belt or both. It could be as easy as checking the level of your power steering fluid but if this isn't the case then you can always just go and get a repair manual and start on one of these two issues. I highly doubt that your lines have deteriorated in the last 3 or 4 years.

I have a 2003 chevy blazerthat has power steering problem no leak

There is a "pressure regulator" located in the pump just behind the high pressure line that directs high pressure fluid to the steering rack when you turn the steering wheel. It sounds like the regulator valve is sticking and not sending the high pressure fluid to the steering rack when you turn the wheel.
You can remove the pump and clean the valve, reinstall the pump and flush the steering system with fresh fluid or replace the pump and flush the system with new fluid.
Good luck.
