Master Cylinder/HydroBoost

Need a little help. I noticed a leak on the frame of my truck behind the driver's side front tire. I traced it back to this thing(see pictures). Left picture shows the leak in the very center of the photograph. Right picture is a view of the entire unit that is leaking.

1. Is this the HydroBoost, and if so, what are my options for correcting the leak? From what I have read, it seems that you just have to replace the hydroboost. I can't beleive you can not just replace the seals/gasket.

2. Anyone experienced with this, can you give me some tips on replacing this unit, if that's what the problem is?

2. Also, this leak might be the reason that my ABS & Brake light are always on, right? I replaced the RWSS, but that didn't cure the problem.
