This same thing happened to my '75 450SLC not long ago. Lots of smoke from fluid on the exhaust system.. especially on uphill climbs. I couldn't see where the leak was as it was apparently buried under other components on the driver's side. So into the shop it went.
$700 later I had a new power steering hose, p/n 107 997 20 82. One side connects to the pump but I can barely see where the other side connects (to the PS box, undoubtedly). Certainly a job better left for one with a lift.
