Where is the power steering fluid reservoir located on an '86 Camaro?

I know this seems like a stupid question, but I cannot find the power steering reservoir anywhere under my hood.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to TGO. Low on the driver's side of the motor.

Its physically attached to the power steering pump its really all one big unit. If your unsure which thing the power steering pump is follow the hoses from the steering box and they will both go back to the power steering pump.

Look under the A/C compressor. It is kinda hidden.
