brake fluid and clutch fluid are the same thing... they share the reservoir.

You'll find the clutch slave on top of your gearbox pointing into the box to opperate the pressure plate on the clutch itself.

you can disconnect the pipe from the slave cylinder easily by just uncliping the securing peice and pulling it free. this could of come loose already which is why it's leaking.

is the clutch opperation still fine?

clutch is perfect, i have had the car lowered so could it be coming from the drive shaft as once the car is lowered the driveshaft becoems slightly bent?
