its the seal that the rod goes into. its worn, so it leaks into the interior of ur car. so change it.

Thanks for the quick response dude.
Good thing I posted this up. I was ready to order a new master cylinder, guess I don't have to if its just the seal gone bad. So the seal it is! Shouldn't be to hard, sound simple enuff. Thanks again bro

You could just get a rebuild kit from AutoZoo, etc, and do that, but you still have to remove the master cylinder anyways. I say just flip a coin on what way you wanna go.

Heads = new master cylinder
Tails = rebuild kit

The rear main seal is located on the engine, between the the flywheel and block.
