Red face I dun goofed ( I think)

When I was blacking out my headlights, I left my wheel turned all the way to the right (in order to access the wheel well screw) and I forgot about it and went to sleep after I finished the headlights.

When I started the car about 12 hours later, I noticed a loud buzzing sound coming from the passenger side of the engine bay. The noise got way louder when I turned the wheel.

Then I noticed a lot of power steering fluid had leaked out of the top of the reservoir, quite a bit. Then I waited a couple hours and the noise went away.

Well, that was yesterday and I noticed it again today. The fluid was leaking out through the top again and I noticed some noise coming from the belt next to it.

Did I get an air bubble in the line from having the wheel turned all night, causing the fluid to overflow in order to get the air out of the system?

I don't really know what I'm talking about for the record, just telling yall what I know
