Default Master cyl question

So I bled my brakes on the m62 today. I finished the rears fine. I fired up the motor to turn the front tires so I could get better access, and noticed lots of fluid coming from the master cylinder area. It looks like its coming out of the boot that covers the rod that pushes the plunger in the master. Is this a replacable seal or is the master trashed? Is there a rebuild kit? Thanks for your input.

That is a dust boot that covers the rod. The fluid is coming from the plunger seals and getting past the dust boot. You can rebuild them if you have a kit but I would by new if it is available.
