Seems like you are talking about the brake booster. It is not connected to the brake fluid system. If there is fluid around it then it must be the master cylinder that is leaking and you will need to replace it. If you do replace it make sure you follow the instructions with the new one and bench bleed it.
Just disconnect the pipe connections, undo the two nuts holding it on to the booster and pull it forward and off.
