I think you mean "master" cylinder.

The slave cylinder, remove the rubber boots and wipe your finger under the
cast aluminum.
I believe you will find that it's leaking and running down the shaft to the
pedal.
Rebuild time !

Hydraulic fluid is dripping off my clutch pedal on to the floor mat.

Where's the first place to look for the leak?

Thanks.
