Power steering fluid leak in my '93 Ford Explorer XLT?

It will all leak out after about 10 minutes of driving. Drips more rapidly while turning, but still leaks when turned off.
I've gone through a 32 oz. bottle this week already over probably 50 miles.
Any ideas of where the leak is coming from, or how i should go about solving it. Even how much it would cost for a shop to do it/diagnose it?
 
It might have a severely cracked hose that's leaking really bad. Or the fittings where the hoses are connected may not be tight enough/broken. Another possibility is that the pump is just worn out.

You'll need to crawl under the car and figure out the source(s) of the leak. It also helps to put a piece of cardboard or newspaper under the engine, so the leak stains can help you determine where it's coming from.

Good luck, I hate fixing power steering stuff!
