Default 2002 audi a6 quattroo wont start.

I just got from cali a few weeks ago.my wife drove my car for a day when i was gone.i already knew it needed poer steering fluid but i thought it shouldve been ok.
At the bottom of the car there is what looks like an aluminum. Hose.it started off scrapped and leekes green fuild.i think its power steering fluid since what i put in went away quick.that line snapped not sure what its called.give me the name to that part.
Now it wont start.tried to jump start it all lighta turn on but nothing wont turn over nothing.help with that as well.ideas...
Also it runs on 5 cylinders. One of the cylinders went out i think the positive. And negative. Came into contact and made it showr out.how do i fix this.cost.
Thanms for the help in advance.

I think your wife has killed your car, man... The power steering leak will not prevent the car from firing. If you shorted out the battery with the jumper cables and made some sparks, I don't think that would have damaged anything almost all of the current would have been running through the jumper cables. You'll need to get it to a shop and have someone take a closer look.
