Default Brake problem resolve

Yea finally have pedal and here was the results. My Master cylinder was leaking at the throat found this out after rebuilding rear caliper from scratch. There is a round gasket that was torn that was mated to the booster. I looked for a replacement gasket that is and found it was on some cars starting in 1965 and in 77. CSSB said i was the second person to acquire about this gasket and they said not necessary. Well i believe if the finish was smooth and finished it was not needed and proceeded to replace with one i had on my shelf without gasket. I bench bleed the MC and the GM Chinese knock off is not leaking. So now no air in system pedal back to stopping car. By the way the MC i replaced was only five years old.
