Power steering - fluid pouring out

I had a flat yesterday on the highway in my 1990 900 Sedan -
When I pulled off the road I ran over something large (looked like a cement block or brick.)
Got the tire changed but when I got home, I could feel the steering was stiff. Checked it today - no fluid in the reservoir - filled it and turned the car on and the fluid is pouring out underneath in roughly the middle of the car below the fire wall. Once it drained, I took the power steering pump belt off so it won't ruin the pump, as it runs dry.
Any ideas on this - seems like something must have been knocked loose, but I crawled under the car and couldn't fine anything obvious with the car off except a slow drip - looked like it was coming from one of the 4 brake lines, but it's not brake fluid - it's Power steering fluid.
Thanks in advance for ideas and inputs.
