Default cossy brake pipes

Hi Just wondered if anyone knew why my mates cossy leaks fluid from what looks like a big brake union on the rear brake lines.....to me it looks like a pressure reducer but it has a small hole in it...almost like a pressure release that constantly weeps fluid...any way ford said he cant get another one and wondered if it is a pressure reducer can he just buy an after market one..? Any thoughts Cheers P.s glad i found this site some awesome motors keep up the good work

It is a pressure reducer and should not weep.
Does not have to be a cossie one though, would have thought still available pattern anyway, or an alternative would be available to suit.
