Default freelander brake fluid leak and strange rotation noise

Hi all, just brought this freelander for the misses and there's a brake fluid leak coming from the drivers side rear. Any ideas what it could be... Coroded pipe maybe?

Second problem is there is a strange rotating noise coming from the rear. Thought it was a bearing but not the right whine noise, it increases when engine increases if that means anything?? Cheers for your help folks

You sure your rear wheel cylinder hasnt burst and the material on the brake shoes has come away from its plate and rotating in the drum? Check for wetness on rear wheels
