The FSM doesn't have the answer im looking for... where the rubber line seats on the slave cylinder there is a slight depression. It looks as if there's supposed to be a copper gasket or something filling that void, anyone know off hand if this is the case? I could always use silicon or something of that nature but with fittings like that copper just makes sense. Thanks in advance for any insight
