My master cylinder is leaking from the little port between where the two lines attach. I've never seen such a design. Whats that little port? Is it a weep hole, similar to a water pump? I assume this leak is telling me the master cylinder needs replacement, yes?

What color is the MC filler cap yellow [new design] or black [orginal]?

Old design should have been replaced 10 years ago.

Careful with non dealer remans some don't last very long.
