Master brake leak
#1
#2
Mine was leaking like that a few years ago. The reservoir sits on a gasket and becomes loose over time. What I did was take a few zip ties and wrapped them around the reservoir and the cylinder itself (top to bottom). This crushed the reservior against the cylinder and stopped the leak. I put one on the front and one on the rear (make sure they are tight, put even pressure, and do not interfere with the operation of the cap). I was worried about it the first few weeks but after 4 years without leaking I trust the fix. Hope it helps

There is a retainer clip on the bottom front the the reservoir. PITA to get off. Once the clip is pulled forward, the reservoir pulls up and off. You will see two 0rings. I bet the rear one is bad.
