How far do you need to go, the main issue, heavy steering apart is the pump running with no fluid.

I'd go for it, I don't think that would cause any damage to the pump.

I suppose the good thing is that you know what the problem is, as you say it is just finding the leak. I would hope upon a good poke around it would show itself fair quickly and may just be a split pipe or needing a clamp done up
