94 4wd pickup brake line coupler leak

Bolted to the frame on the right front wheelwell is a bracket which holds 2 brake line couplers, one shaped like an upside down T and the other looks like a backwards L

the L shaped coupler popped a leak, and so I ordered OEM part from dealer for $78.. does that sound right, or could I buy this part elsewhere, cheaper?

Also in about 100000 miles this leak from the joint/ coupler, besides routine pad replacement, is my only issue with brakes

Should I be concerned about anything else here, connected to the system ? I wonder if this leak is a gateway to something else worse, is where I'm going with this..

If anybody might post a pic of a diagram of this brake system, exploded view with part numbers, it would be greatly appreciated

Sincerely and happy trails,

You have the rear antilock brakes (that dont do shi!) So there is a bunch of lines for that, thats why all the couplers at the wheel well. You also have a bunch of hydraulic lines that come from the powere steering pump to the abs actuator. Those lines will start gong bad to.
I usually rip all that crap out and run one line from the master to the back T split and also get rid of the load valve thing on the frame at the back. This removes about 70 feet of brake line that will go bad, all for abs that does nothing.
