power steering pump, idle up valve. burning atf

Have the issue where I'm getting power steering fluid into my exhaust , causing crazy smoke. I need to find a new pump, and idle up valve. I usually buy from ebay but can't find them. Could someone please post a link? and maybe a thread showing the replacement? thanks

Cap off the vacuum lines & take the idle up valve off the pump & replace with a bolt. I did this years ago with ZERO affect in daily use.

took the lines off while t was running...didnt see any atf in them. bone dry actually...i just finished rebuilding my top. correctly. so i know its not valve seals, or a headgasket. ill do a compression check later to check the rings. what about the pcv valve? ive heard that can get clogged and cause smoke. please point me in the right direction, because im losing my mind
