Just brake with the right foot,you should be ok.
Failing that look for a later abs equipped sierra as they are under the servo in the engine bay and usually in good condition and should not have cosworth tax on them.
Or you could weld up the leaking weep hole,heard of that being done before.

There's a tiny weep hole that it drips from.
