Brake line leak.....brake failure

#18 is part I may need if as others have said that brake line corrodes but would like visual confirmation that is in fact the case....previously I've had my vehicle tampered with.

Got to physical therapy by limping it in to parking lot....could tell reservoir was low....

No leaks near wheels/tires

Brake fluid leak is coming from line along frame #18 according to schematic

No fluid leaks at reservoir or under engine compartment

Reservoir according to Chilton manual...has separate hydralic compartments for both systems...but if main brake line is leak....does that cause reservoir to be fully drained?

No leaks from engine area that I can see

Torn rotator in shoulder, acl recivery & injured foot....make getting/staying under truck to get a look to see if brake line is corroded extremely difficult.
