Where to check steering box fluid level

Quick question is where do you check the steering box level?  I have noticed mine is slightly seeping and am planning a trip in the next week. My intention are to keep an eye on it through this trip and maybe repair replace when the trip is done

It's part of the Power steering system. It has a twist lock plug with a dip stick on the end of it...  Cylinder tank hold about 1/2 half gallon of fluid...
