On the V8, the reservoir is on the nearside, but mine appears to be leaking from the offside so yours (hopefully) is a pipe coming loose.
Greenflag topped mine up and within 750 yards, the steering had become very heavy and the fluid had gone so I don't think mine is a pipe but you never know.....

Hoping both of our problems are easy to fix
