If the pump got hot enough to start smoking, it is a fair assumption that it is toast. The pump mounted on the distributor drive is a gear pump with two steel gears inside an aluminum housing. With no oil, it will score the housing up very bad, and will burn the seals out of it or quickly wear down the shafts where the seals touch. You will need to get the pump rebuilt. You add engine oil by removing the cast iron cap with the two tabs 180 degrees apart by turning it counter-clockwise. The cap is located on top of the front of the distributor drive. Open the test plug by screwing the top diamond shaped knob counterclockwise. When oil drips out slowly, the crankcase is full and you should stop adding oil and close the test plug by screwing it clockwise. The hydraulic fluid should be added to the reservoir, which is the big cylindrical tank, by removing the plug with the T-handle on the upper left side of the tank. The transmission and differential are filled through the pipe plug mounted on the platform right behind the steering box. There is a check plug on the left hand side of the tractor's transmission that is used to see if it is low or not. If it doesn't come out of the hole the plug was in, it is low. Have you drained the engine oil yet? How much came out? If you drained several (4 or more) gallons out of the engine crankcase and it smelled like hydraulic fluid, your pump is shot. That means no matter how much oil you add, it will continue to dump it into the engine crankcase past the bad seals and dilute the engine oil until it leaks out the rear main oil seal on the crankshaft again or the pump finally locks up.
