Best Answer

The pump will be driven off of the fan belt, so look at the pulleys and see which one has hoses hooked to it that go to the steering box or rack.

Sometimes the Power Steering pump is driven by a separate belt rather than the fan belt. If in doubt, find the hoses at the steering box / rack end and follow them back towards the engine.

Can it hurt the steering pump by putting oil in it?

YES. your power steering pump is a hydraulic pump that pushes fluid through lines to make your wheels move. hydraulic fluid such as ATF or POWER STEERING FLUID is good for your power steering pump. it is a PUMP after all. OIL has the purpose of lubricating, and has very different qualities than hydraulic fluid.
