Default Rear brake (pressure reducing?) valve

Hi.

My 3dr is leaking at the rear brake line section (near to the rear passenger side axle) It's the hex'd unit which is in line with the brake line, BEFORE it goes into the 3 way split.

See attached photos of them. (from someone else's car who had the same problem as me!!)





Could you tell me what it does and anyone got one spare? Ford stopped making them!

It leaks through the tiny hole below the elastic band that is around the small area. I thought that it may be a pressure relief, but it leaks (seeps) when I pump the pedal. Only a TINY amound comes out when I hold the brakes.

Many thanks in advance!
