Engine oil overfull and no power steering or hydraulics

Customer complained that there was a lot of smoke from exhaust. The engine oil was about 10 litres overfull. I did a quick service and left. Got a call an hour later they had no hydraulics. Oh oh. This morning I pulled the hydraulic pump and sure enough the pump seal had blown out and was pumping hydraulic oil in to the crankcase.
