Got it to a mechanic this morning and while trying to source a Power Steering pump, talked with both Anders and Walter Wong (many thanks to both for their advice) and found that it just a hole in the high pressure line. But how that hole got there is whole other story.
Just recently (approx 1K miles) had the water pump, tensioners, belt replaced. Turns out that when they put the bolts back into the motor mount they did not do it correctly. I currently have 1 that is stripped and 2 that sheared completly off. This of course let the engine rest on the subframe, which rubbed against the CV joint, which then wore a hole into the high pressure line.
I will be going back to my normal mechanic with quite the bill. Now I just need to find a rental car.
