    The photo suggest an aftermarket water temp adaptor thinghy,
    Fill her up and check for bubbles in the water, or water in your oil
    Do you think you turned it off before any damage was done ??

    Im not to sure TD im hoping so I cant figure out why my power steering went as well it was fine when I turned it off then aftrr I got it off the truck when I was tring to park it it had no power streering first I thought the driver put the strap over my arms but couldnt see anything.

    On top of that there was no leaking oil or water other then what sprayed out of that hole. I wont know for a week or so anyway as I had to leave the car my oldies and its 150km away so gotta try find a tow rig and trailer so it doesn't cost me $500 to tow it

    You didn't break a belt, that happened to me, no warning no noise,
    it would be coolant not oil

    Have you checked to see that the power steering belt is still on and not loose? Maybe it snapping had something to do with the coolant sensor being knocked off? Like 3d mentioned, check your coolant for bubbles. Cut the top off a 2l coke bottle and electrical tape it to the radiator filler neck and fill it with distilled water, easy way to check for bubbles and you won't make a big mess.

    It's a shame you can't check it straight away...

    Still trying to figure out how/why your power steering is not working.?
    Maybe some coolant splilt on the belt causing it to slip, seems strange ?

    The belt would squeal if that the case?

    If the powersteering is not working could be air in the lines
    as for the engine could be head gasket or head cracked
