To my knowledge, the box has never been filled - only adjusted every so slightly to reduce a bit of play in the steering wheel. I understand your point, however a spill seems unlikely in my mind. Where can I find the above diagram.

I am surprised you had to adjust it to remove play.

These older design steering boxes need a bit of play. They can be over tightened, perhaps this is causing over pressure in the system forcing fluid past the seals?
