I can tell you that you wasted a lot of money on oil and filters for nothing. Hopefully you caught the second change of oil in clean containers so you can re-use it, because there was nothing wrong with it.
If the oil is wet and slippery it's not the cause of your problems. It can be contaminated to the nines with water and it will still work as hydraulic oil. I have no idea what hydraulic oil could possibly be contaminated with that would make it not be pumpable and not work as hydraulic fluid.
Power steering is probably air in the lines, and should kick in after you turn the wheels from lock to lock several times.

See if you can find someone with a pressure gauge, and/or possibly a flow rater to see what you've got.
Does the tractor make "hydraulic-y" noses just sitting there idling? All you should hear is the engine, no whines or squeals. The engine shouldn't labor when it's just sitting there.
