1985 Volkswagen Van Fluid leak

Steering problem
1985 Volkswagen Van 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 123456 miles

I'm leaking about a 1/2 cup of steering fluid out of the left side of the steering link jacket after driving any distance. As soon as the van starts up there is a "grrring" sound that wasn't there before, even if it is idling. Does the steering link need to be replaced or can I get away with flushing the system by disconnecting the tube at the reservoir?
