My car is in the shop getting gears swapped and the mechanic just called me to tell that my front brake (cobra brakes) is leaking brakefluid. It's all over my caliper and wheel.. Any idea what this could be?

edit: just got another call, it's comming from one of the pistons..

he ordered a rebuild kit that will hopefully solve the problem.. reason I didn't want him to order a new caliper is because that will take another 2 weeks..

I'm also giving him the Goodrich brakelines that came with my car and a new mastercylinder. I suppose the previous owner knew about the brakepedal problems with 94-95 cars and cobra brakes.

Anyway, how can I tell that the mastercylinder I have here is a cobra one or a stock replacement?
There are two numbers on it: 012099B and 30876 AC :dontknow:

Just went down stairs and looked at the mc that comes in the cobra kit and it matches yours, 30876 AC. It's a cobra.
