John,
Just clean and rebuild both the slave and master cylinder using new
seals. Clean up the bores with wet&dry 1000 or hone them. If the bores
are not perfectly smooth any more, renew them, they are cheap items. A
relatively simple job. If one is gone the other is not far away from
failure either.
