where can i get a good deal on a new steering gearbox?

hey guys, i have an '87 Formula WS6 which im slowly trying to restore/modify and now im gonna start in with the steering/suspension. well the first big problem is that my power steering pump has had NO FLUID in it in about 2 months. well, possibly longer, when i got the car it had no fluid in it, don't know for how long. the ps pump isn't leaking, its the output shaft on the gearbox. so two questions, first, can you rebuild the ps gearbox? if so where do ya get the kit and how hard is it? ok so i have about 4 questions!! lastly, where is a good place to score a cheap but good WS6 gearbox? the junkyards are empty and i would like to get a new one or a good rebuilt one.
