A few months ago I sprung a leak at my pressure differential regulator, that little plastic valve that screws into the union fitting near the driver's side wheel well, that expensive (for a little piece of plastic) part that also - I think - functions as the brake failure light sensor. I replaced it, bled the system, changed the master cylinder for good measure (almost 200K on the original), and off I went. It just started to leak again, still a fairly slow leak that I have to top off every other day or so, but I'm wondering if there's something else going on that might be causing this leak to be recurring?
