Master Cylinder Leak



My brake light just went on and I found that my brake fluid level was a bit 
low. I could see what looked like a slightly moist "greasy dirt" all around 
the area between the master cylinder and the vacuum booster.

What is the best way to investigate this leak? When I take off the reservoir 
cap to refill the master cylinder I have to bend the float because the 
electrical connector is in the way. Is this normal? It seems like the float 
will brake. Is this another quirk in the DMC design or in me for not knowing 
how to do it properly?

My car always seemed to need too much brake pressure to stop and my idle is 
fast and oscillates. Could I have a vacuum leak in this area?
