TR6: Achy Leaky Booster

The brake booster on my '72 TR6 is leaking.  Of course, it's ruining paint
inside the engine bay.  (This is why I hate DOT 4 in these cars, and will
change it out to DOT 5 now ...)

The leak is slow but sure, and appears at the bottom of the servo unit.
Question is, do I need a rebuild, or a new booster, and how do I tell the
difference.  (There is, by the way, no noticeable drop in performance of the
unit.)

The PO who restored my car is unavailable, so I can't ask him what, if
anything, he did to the booster ...
