Brake Help
Hello to all, I found a small brake fluid leek on my fox from this part:
Not sure what it is called, so I will call it the "brake distribution block"....hopefully that's what its called. The pic above is not of my car, but a pic I found on-line. I looked on Latemodel & Mustangs Unlimited & cannot find the part. Excuse my ignorance on this, but I have some questions.
1. Can this part be bought new, if so, where?
2. All the lines are tight, should I remove all lines & re-install with teflon tape? Is it recommened to use teflon tape on brake lines??
3. Looks like removing this part will make a BIG brake fluid mess & I would need to remove air from the lines afterwords....any "neat" way of doing this?
Thanks!!

Ok, thanks for the advice. I plan on doing this on the weekend. I would love to get a new unit, but like I stated, they are no where to be found. I'm going to try locally at the part stores.
