1) does it still work? might be a one time leak?
2) warranty avail?
3) buy a new XT/SLX lever only

Still works, but losing pressure. Not sure on warranty, but I would guess not as the bike is used. Leak seems to be growing. Might have been brought on by installing new pads last night and pushing calipers inward to make room for the new pads.

I had oil leak out of that same spot once when resetting my pistons on my XT M8000s. The system was likely overfilled and resetting the pistons caused some fluid to blow off. I did a lever bleed after(stick the funnel in the lever and pump the lever a few times so it drinks some fluid) and it has been fine since and hasn't leaked again.
