Can you see the split? If so try and wipe the pipe clean with some thinners and wrap some tape around with a jubilee clip over the top, this should hold fluid well enough to get you to a garage.

Take the belt off, the steering will be as hard as fighting a grizzly but you wont burn the pump out Smile

Yup, but they wont be cheap.
Theres Pirtek and a couple of others that do 24/7 service, but will be a whole lot cheaper if the shop is open.
