Did you try to hammer a nail in it and thought it might be a wrong idea so you pulled it out? Is it, was it leaking?

If it's not leaking it's probably not a hole.

If it IS leaking, replace it. Brake fluid sprayed all over your engine bay wont do you any favors.

okae.. figured it out. Its not a hole, but a lil slight indentation rite below the MC. All brake boosters have it.. and i think it's designed to be like that so that when your MC goes bad and leaks, that the fluid will be able to leak out the bottom of the MC.
