Found this info. I don't know liter size of engine? For the 2.2L rotate the engine forward slightly. Some, I have removed the squirrel cage from the blower, then removed. I don't know if that would be applicable on your vehicle? As far as the power steering pump, I'd have to look at mounting bracket. All I can do is throw out ideas, I can't see anything from here.
Yes you must remove the pump.

patience , and a 13 MM wrench , you gotta get your arms in there deep , that lower bolt does not need to come all the way off , the thermostat housing has a slot at the bottom for easier access , loosen it about 3.4 of the way and you can get the housing out , experience says a premium thermostat will give you grief trying to reinstall , get a regular duty thermostat .reverse procedure.

The bolt holding you up is on the bottom by the compressor, right? You Will have to have an inverted torx socket to remove the studs. Also there is a spacer behind the mount bracket, remember where it goes. You will have to pull the pully bolts and get it out of the way too. Some of those cars have plastic elbows going from the intake to the water pump, be carefull with it. Your motor may not have this but be ready to replace it if it does because it will most likley break. Good Luck.

Check your heater hoses. It sounds like your leak is a hose.

In case anyone still has a 1992 Century like I do you have to change the blower motor from the firewall. The problem is that the power steering pump is in the way. So, you have to remove it. NOTE: You don't have to remove the reservoir. First, using an 18mm wrench, grab the tensioner pulley and with a pipe on the end of the wrench/socket push CCW to release tension and remove the serpentine belt. Then loosen the three 13mm bolts behind the power steering pulley (you reach them through the holes). You don't have to loosen the bracket bolt that attaches the bracket to the alternator. Then there is one 13mm bolt on the opposite side of the pump that attaches to a rod whose other end mounts to the top back of the engine with a 10mm head bolt. This also needs to be removed. Once this is done you can maneuver the pump out of the way of the fan, but be careful with the high pressure hose and the low pressure rubber hose. I disconnected the low pressure hose and drained the tank to make it easier since the fluid was old anyway, but you shouldn't have to do this. It is still a tight fit and you have to move the PS pump out of the way by twisting and turning a bit but it can be done. You then install the new blower fan and reverse the instructions to put everything back. If you need to add fluid, remember to turn the wheels back and forth to bleed any air. I didn't have to do much of this since I plugged the low pressure line. Good luck if you have to change the blower motor! It's nice not to hear the grinding of the old one. A new one with impeller costs around $25-$30 at the auto parts store. It should take about 1-2 hours with good light.
