The galvanised plates are standard- one each side, under the driver and the passengers feet.
PAS should be nice and light, if it isn’t and the pump isn’t low on fluid my money is on the universal joints under the bonnet- they’re often neglected. Spray them both with your penetrating oil of choice over a few days and see if it gets better. If not you’ll need to remove that section of the steering column to be able to free them off once they’re off the car, which is pretty easy to do - but see if a few days of penetrating oil does the trick first.

I’m really pleased I was completely wrong about the galvanised plates.
