Default Brake master cylinder upgrade

Currently my master cylinder has a 23 on the side, and is slightly weeping so need to change, as I’m finally fitting the Focus rs Brembo’s I’m considering upgrading the master cylinder
Ive been told to try looking for a 25 that bolts up
Some mk5/6/7 escorts have a 25 on, will that bolt up to my Mk2 Orion servo with no mods bar brake pipes...

Chris RS turbo ones were 25mm but only dual line outlets.
never done it myself but think more modern is to go mk1 Mondeo servo and master but will be hard to find these days and require pipe work.

My RS 25mm one just failed. I could not get a replacement anywhere. I bought a second hand one that turned out to be a 23mm part, but my brakes are the best they have been for years!!! Hopefully Bigg Red can refurbish my original part.
My son had a mk1 mondeo servo and master cylinder on his mk2 fiesta it needs modifying slightly to make the reservoir sit level but as previously stated it has 4 pipes.
