Default 2001 GS430 Alternator Change

I had someone change out my alternator and it drove fine for about a week and then all of a sudden it starts making a lot of noise while running and the power steering would go in and out. Can anybody help me understand what was done wrong and give me step by step instructions how to do it myself?

sorry I don’t have time to research but I can’t remember if it’s the gs300 or 400 that had issues with the power steering fluid leaking onto the alternator
