The leak at the light switch is usually fixed by removing the tube 40-3597 and soldering the tube to it's mounting plate. If the leak is at the sector and pitman arm the sector shaft seal in the sector housing should be replaced with a CR11209 seal.
If the oil all leaked out overnight you may be missing something. There are drawings in the parts books showing the assembly.
