Master Cylinder Leaking Problem

A couple weeks ago, my brake light in my dash started going off, and I asked on the .org and then told me I probably had a small leak and was just getting low on fluid. I filled up my fluid today, and noticed that it looked like the Master Cylinder has been pumping brake fluid out over the harness connecting to it...is this even possible? The harness is covered in a sticky black fluid...could this be my leak?

replace your master cylinder and your brake fluid reservoir that should fix any problem witha leak up there you have to be careful becasue if your brake fluid leaks from the madster cylinder into the power booster it can mess the power booster up ive had it happen to me on my 88 i had a few years back.
