Slyde - You weren't kidding about the carpet being bad. There was an incredible amount of fluid down there - very nasty stuff. I pulled back both the carpet and the carpet cushion, only to reveal a ton more fluid. It looks like the fluid that was leaking from the location of the pump flowed down to that area.
I examined the pump. The O-ring appears intact. Q: Is the hydraulic fluid pink? One of the clear hoses coming out of the pump (left side, if the reservoir is considered "up") was clear, while the one of the right side was full of pink fluid.
Is this a sign that the leak occurred somewhere other than the pump itself? I couldn't see any breaks in the line, but I haven't pulled off the side panels yet to take a look at the cylinders.
What a mess. I've got fans trying to dry it up right now.
