Hi
Have replaced both front brake hardlines. (Facelift car no ABS) Noticed a drip hanging off the passenger side line, removed it and made another pipe thinking the flare was defective.

Few days passed and the drip reappeared.

Upon starting to replace the front to rear line I whipped everything off reservior etc
And noticed that the sides of the master where wet.

Seals looked ok but the metal is pitted corroded where the seal sits.

Is this now scrap or can I clean it up and fit new seals? (still at the dealers)

Was working fine etc and did bleed well with an ezzibleed at 12psi

Thanks
