Power Steering Capacity... Leak

My power steering gear box is leaking where the steering shaft from the steering wheel goes into the gear box.
As rusted as the 80 is, I am not sure if the bolts will come out or snap off so I am going to add some TransX transmission fluid to see if it will stop the leak. It worked on the Camry but I didn't know where the leak was on the Camry.
I also have some Lucas Power Steering additive that is to stop leaks but not sure if it is compatible with ATF???

With the TransX I need a 1:10 ratio but don't know the capacity of the power steering system, how much is it?
