need help with finding a part 700 1987

Im not sure which part i need, but its something with the power steering. I was just driving along, minding my own business when something metallic fell out of my car. The power steering is dead now. I see that there is a belt around 2 pulleys, and im guessing there was a 3rd one that fell out. Does anyone know what these pulleys are called? and info about how the power steering works would be helpful.

87 740 turbo

    The belt is around the main engine pulley and the water pump and power steering. You either lost the water pump (mounted on left front of engine) pulley or power steering pump pulley (mounted on bracket at lower left; looking at engine). In either case you won't have power steering and will have an overheating engine.

    You need to look at the FAQ section of this board and get a book to learn the basics and get maintenance tips you need.
