We are parked along side of side street. Power steering went out and radiator cooling fan. No overheat, but fluid is everywhere starting at Hyd motor for radiator cooling fan. Series 60.  As soon as I can get some fluid in it the leak will be more obvious. Anyone ever had to pulling the hyd motor for a front seal? Looking for anyone who has had this issue.

I found the leak. It is a hose to the hyd motor. New hose should get it going. Fluid is everywhere.

Thanks Richard. I pulled all the hoses from pump to motor. Trying to get some made in the Morning.One burst a hole that was along it's bottom, then collected in pan area in front of radiator fan shroud. The fan then picked up the fluid and sent it everywhere. The shaft was wet on the motor that drives the fan. Since it was highest point I had thought the motor shaft seal had burst. But Newell told me via their hotline that type failure isn't the norm, it begins a weep first, not a flood. The problem is pretty easy to detect, the steering wheel started pulsing turning a turn.

Changed the hoses and serviced the fluid. Seems fine, will know for sure when I get it back on the road inside the hour.
Thanks everyone!
