I was going to try to tighten my PS belt to reduce the squeal I was getting when turning. So I loosened up the bolt on the left of the reservoir mount to try to tighten.
Then suddenly the PS fluid started to drain. I re-tightened and it continued to drain. Yikes. Did I damage something?
I'm looking for ideas and suggestions. I have no real idea what my next step ought to be. Thanks

Sounds like you have a loose hose maybe? Take a picture of your setup and the bolt you tried to take out.

Could be the pulley shaft seal has given up the ghost.
