The black shaft appears to be the steering vibration damper which was fitted to B19 and late B14 models. This doesn't contain fluid though, so maybe you've broke the housing around your pinion.

Definately Non_PAS. I just presumed all non-pas racks were like the one I have, which is different to that
'88 360 +T LSD - sold
'87 760 TDI (D24TIC) - sold
'04 V40 D sport (F9Q, decat, Remapped, launch control)
'89 740 SE (b230ft, 12psi, V-cam, headwork, 'remapped', banded steels)
'86 340 DL 1.4

that's a standard non PAS rack and the the thing youre pointing out doesn't contain oil or whatsoever. the rack itself only contains thick grease.

you're looking at an engine oil leak
