Does anyone have any experience with a fluid leak at the low pressure "tank" connection hoses to the master cylinder. The connections seem to be pressed in with foam washers/seals. They are leaking brake fluid and I need to fix this but I have no idea what parts to order. The TIS/ETK shows very litttle as always, so I figured that this had to be a common issue and someone would have a solution. Thanks in advance

The rubber grommets are called "plugs" in the ETK, part number 34-31-1-160-133, you'll need two (2) of them. These are the parts you need if your reservoir sits on top of your master cylinder via these seals. Now's a good time to flush the rest of your brake lines and fill with new fluid. =)
