Power steering leak

My 93 z32 power steering pump sounded like it was low on fluid. I put This Lucas power steering fluid from autozone in and now it is leaking. I did read that i should use ATF fluid. Will regular power steering fluid bust the seals?

If something is leaking, you should probably fix it.


Or just cut the belt to the pump.
