I just don't see any necessity to drive several days with no steering
fluid, but that's was your decision. Where did that fluid go and did
you fix that damage related drain on the fluid? That leak under the
boot may have been starting before this accident or it may have been
damaged in the accident. I think you will be needing a new steering
rack.
