Default Brake fluid leak please help

Ok so I'm leaking fluid from what I can tell is the dist block right in front of the radiator. Forgive me if I'm calling it the wrong thing. But I have fluid running down the right side front fork above the fender. Any idea where to get a replacement? I'm unable to find it on eBay or google

microfiche calls it a joint. try tightening the bolts at the brake lines. it seams unlikely the joint itself is leaking, either something wrong with the connection at the fittings, or brake lines themselves
