Default 90' Brake Fluid Leak

I have a 90' Stock Coupe that is slowly leaking brake fluid.

I believe it leaks from in between the master cylinder and the power booster, because the surface of the power booster seems to have fresh fluid on the face of it.

This is a very slow leak but sometimes the change in fluid levels is more noticeable than others.

I have also noticed that only the front master cylinder (the one closest to the front of the car) shows the change in fluid level.

What is the best way to fix this problem? Do I need a new master cylinder, or do I need both master cylinder and power booster? Also will a rebuild kit work, or should I get either a reman or a new one?

Please help as I am new to this problem.

Thank You in advance
