Problem with my Grand Prix (beater)

Was on my way to a b-day party last night..as i was coming around an on-ramp to the free way...felt my steering wheel get reallllly hard to turn...instantly figured...power steering. Well as i got in a gas station..popped the hood..and took a look...power steering fluid was everywhere!! One of the lines came disconnected. The reservoir was completely empty. So i poured some new fluid in..started it up..and still no power steering. Well i was just a mile down the street or so..so i hoped back on the freeway and drove it home without power steering. When i popped the hood and took a look in the reservoir...the fluid was like chocolate milk brown! The car was vibrating pretty bad within the steering wheel on the way home as well. It recntly developed a very slight vibration a couple months ago..but ive checked out all the fluids and everything has been fine...any ideas?? 1995 Grand prix 3.4

Yeah I'd get a new pump and high pressure line to be safe... Shouldn't cost that much to fix...
