Well, if it's leaking on the mat, either your reservoir has a leak in it or your master cylinder is leaking. It should be easy to see if the reservoir is leaking. If it isn't, suspect the master. At about $40-50, I'd just by a new one, but you can rebuild if you want (If it's original, I wouldn't rebuild as there could well be internal pitting that will be very difficult to correct). Also, if your slave cylinder is original, consider replacing it as well and the flex hose. If you replace just the master, the slave will fail in a week. It's the perfect running syndrome.
Beware the perfect running syndrome. I've seen it happen. One Rover owner pulls up and says to the next, "Yeah ole Bessie is running perfectly. I've completely replaced all the ________ (fill in the blank)."
He jumps in the truck and it won't crank.
Never tell your Rover (or anyone else) that it is running perfectly. They don't run perfectly, they just keep running.
