Default brake fluid leak

i have a brake fluid leak i think have found where it is leaking.

i think the leak is from one of the hand brake cable is slightly cut from one side.

i was wondering when i fix the problem do i have to replace the cable (most likely will be replaced) or replace other parts as well.

thanks

Bil

hand brake cables do not carry fluid.

Check your brake pipes, and if your car has drums, check the wheel cylinder, you will see if theres a leak as the fluid stays there for quite a while
