Question '01 S60-Power Steering Fluid Leak INSIDE-DriverSide Rug

Out of the blue, my power steering fluid level in reservoir was low and I have been having to top it off for the last couple of weeks, so naturally i am curious as to where it is leaking at. Today i discovered that the front driver side rug is soaked in power steering fluid. Where can this be coming from? Does the PS fluid get cooled inside the car? Do i have a leak in a radiator inside the car? Does anyone have any diagrams on how the PS fluid travels through the inside of my car? I am a DIY'r and would like to fix this one myself if possible. thanks- jf.

I can only imagine that it would be coming up the column and in to the passenger compartment, which would mean a bad seal in the rack. I am surprised thye wouldn't have some sort of weep hole to drain it outside though....
