Yes, it is very close to leaking, but did not. And I bought the replacement from our our hosts on this forum, off of Ebay. I haven't bled brakes since around 1975 but I know it is not difficult. A winter project for me. Yesterday may have been my last ride till April or May. In the 30's (f) for the next couple of weeks and not likely to be above 45 for a long time. 45 F is about my limit, or maybe a little lower if it is sunny.
