I have a weep from the seal which the brake fluid feed pipe goes into in the brake master cylinder. Does anyone know if this seal can be purchased on its own? It is a 1974 left hand drive e9.

Thanks,

Rohan

now i see a bit of misunderstanding, title says clutch, thread says brake
in any case if it is the original clutch is 17 mm in diameter, so 17x6,5 is the one, buy some, it is the same size as the original brake master cyl, i would buy at least 3, and it is a PITA to assemble the clutch one, so buy one more just in case

I rebuilt my clutch master cylinder, it then failed. So I replaced it with a copy part that was very cheap. SF Don recommended replacing it, there is a thread on it somewhere.
The copy part was about three times the cost of the seal kit, so I would recommend the entire part and save the hassle.
