Powersteering fluid.....

is all over the left side of the engine. The PS reservoir is nearly empty.
Back in January, I started hearing clicking noises when I made left turns. But then recently when it warmed up, the clicking stopped, but now it's super hard to make right turns. So finally today, my engine started making so weird noises, so I opened up the hood to find fluid all over the pulleys, belts, hood, you name it, it was on it. (My brake and abs lights are on, huh?)
I know its kinda vague, but any guesses to what happened? Do you think it's still safe to drive the car for about another week with the fluid on the belts and pulleys? Man I don't get paid till next week so I'm pretty much gonna be driving it anyways. Just wanna get your opinions.
Thanks.
 
I would not drive the car, and would try to see if you can rent or get a ride. With the fluid going all over the belts, the belts could slip or even fail. If you can swing not driving the car I would, experience has taught me not to push your luck. If you do, you might break something more expensive.
