Hi,
As far as the belt, the power steering pump is turned by the serpentine belt. If the belt is loose, the belt automatic tensioner must be bad.
In pic 1, is the circled item where the belt is coming off? If that is the case and the belt is loose, I suggest replacing the belt tensioner.
The last three pics below are the directions for the removal and replacement of the belt tensioner.
As far as the brakes, I have a request. I need you to start a new post related to the brake problem. We try to keep the topics specific to one topic, so it is more helpful to others. I hope you understand. Simply copy and paste that section of your question to a new post.
Here is the link to start a new one:

Also, if the pedal is going to the floor, make sure the brake fluid is full. If it is, the brake master cylinder is likely the problem. However, we can do a couple of tests on the new post.
Let me know what you mean by the rod is slipping. What rod are you referring to?
Take care,
Joe
