HOSE FROM BRAKE RESERVIOR TO CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER?

HI I would Like to say that this is a very great and informative site! I just got a 2002 MCS recently so Im failry new to Mini's and stumbled upon this site and just had to join. I look forward to sharing and learning everybodys experiences with this extradinary yet giving me a slight headache car. Now my problem is that I recently found a leak by my carpet area and it appears to be brake fluid running down my clutch pedal, so i searched everywhere on where its coming from? the symtoms point to the master clutch cylinder but upon inspect its not. I traced it all the way to the connection of the hose (black flexible) that connects the brake/clutch reservior and the clutch master cylinder. The leak seems to be in the hose by the firewall into the cabin area? I noticed that there was a rubber seal there but was cut by previous owner to run alarm wires. Does anyone know if it is easy to replace the hose, and know what part # it is? IT doesnt appear that the brake line that goes in the same place seem to be leaking. so i figure its the clutch one. Again thanks for your help in advance.
