Ok...that's your slave cylinder. Where exactly is it leaking from? The hose going into the cylinder? The pushrod?

The pushrod is the little **** that presses against the clutch-lever. It has a rubber acordian style boot around it.

Well, I can't see to well in the picture, but if it's not the hose, then it's most likely the piston seal.

If it ends up being the piston seal, you will either need to replace it or rebuild the slave cylinder.

skiboarder i would suggest checking ur hoses well, and figuring out where it's happening, otherwise you can get some very pre-mature clutch problems

i had a leak issue as well. i believe it was the hose from the master to the slave cylinder. once it was replaced, the leak was resolved.
