Default brake fluid reservoir leak

Hi everyone,

Noticed a brake fluid leak that appears to originate from between where the fluid reservoir meets the master cylinder. It seeps out, runs down the back of the master cylinder and down the brake booster onto the chassis rail and has done some damage to the paint there.

My car is an AU series 3 falcon. I was wondering how to go about replacing the seals where the reservoir and master cylinder marry up.

How do I remove the reservoir?
Where can I get these seals?
Is it worth replacing the seals rather than the whole master cylinder (had a look on ebay, they are a couple of hundred for the whole unit)?

cheers thanks.
