Default brake servo vacume leak rs turbo

My escort rs turbo has a vacume leak between the servo and master cylinder. Does this mean my servo is knackered? Obviously the brakes are solid with no assistance.

Im sure I heard a slight hiss from mine the other day as my mate was pumping the pedal, does that mean i've got a leak on mine too?

Mine leaks at idle without pressing the brake. When you turn the engine off you can hear it hiss for a second or two.
