Yes, Thomas is correct, it's on the transaxle, just under the air cleaner housing and the big air boot to the throttle body.
The correct term for the switch is now the Park Neutral Position switch, or PNP switch.

HOW DO I LOCATE AND REPLACE A PNP NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH ON A 2001 BUICK CENTURY

On top of the transmission, has a triangle shape. Backup light switch is incorporated into it. Has to be adjusted to Neutral position with transmission in Neutral to get it right. Be careful to chock the tires so the car cannot roll and use the hand brake for added safety.

LOCATE AND REPLACE PNP ON A 2001 BUICK CENTURY

If you're talking about the Park Neutral Safety Switch, it's on the linkage right up against the transmission, driver side under the hood. If you're not talking about the Neutal Safety Switch, then spell out exactly what you want and do not abbreviate.

How to change inner tie rod ends?

if fluid is flowing out the bellows, you need to replace the steering rack assembly. There is no fluid in the area of the inner tie rod. The seal is just before the tie rod.

Steering Gear
The power rack and pinion steering gear is serviced as a power steering short rack (3L547). The front wheel spindle tie rods (3280) and tie rod ends (3A130) are serviced individually. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  • The power rack and pinion steering gear incorporates quick connect fittings for the power steering pressure hose (3A719) and power steering return hose (3A713) that allow the lines to swivel. This is normal and does not indicate loose fittings.
  • If the fittings leak, check to make sure they are tightened to 14-20 Nm (10-14 lb-ft). Do not overtighten.
  • If the leak is not corrected, replace the fitting seals.
