i dont have my car or manual here, but from recollection, i think it's pwr steering (pentosin)

there's plastic collar like thinking below the cap (not attached to the cap, attached to the neck of filler hole).

The oil goes into the oil filler, the brake fluid is under the front hood, the screen wash is also under the front hood. That leaves the hydraulic fluid, then.
