Power Steering Fluid on engine??

For the last couple of days my wrx has been eating through power steering fluid. I know I have a leak and wold lke to know where to start looking or any tips to help me locate the leak. All the fluid seems to be on top of the engine next to the pump/reservoir. It's worrying me with all the smoke that comes from the fluid!

Please help!

Hmm, so you are saying the leak is coming from the power steering pump? The smoke is the result from the power steering fluid being burned off from engine heat. When you turn your car does it make a clunking noise?
