Greetings to all BMW enthusiasts!

The area which I am referring to is where the master cylinder meets the power steering accumulator/brake booster servo/self-leveling suspension; in other words, the master cylinder is attached to this. The area that leaks is right where the two meet (the master cylinder and P/S accumulator). It has two bolts that attach them to each other. My questions: could a warped gasket in this area be causing this? Is there even a gasket in this area? If I tackle this myself, do I have to drain/refill/bleed the braking system? Is this a difficlut job?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Good luck to all BMW owners!

Thanks in advance.
