my brakes still don't work well.

1) refitted a mc following bench bleeding all the air out of it.
2) bleed of entire system
3) check caliper operation, brakes stop appropriate wheel spinning
4) noticed some brake fluid 95% sure the fluid is coming from the 'octopus' where there is a seal for the electrical connector

don't know what else to check...could it be the booster? the pedal drops on ignition and i cannot hear any vacuum leaks but i am still unsure.

help, what to do next before submitting the brick to the workshop.

thanks,
chez
