Leaking Brake Issue

Ive been having brake/abs issues for well over a year, ive tried everything that i could find on here...checking connections and grounds, fuses and sensors...

I was installing new rotors in the rear this past weekend when i noticed the right rear brake is leaking, its not coming from the caliper or a hole in the lines..

It appears to be leaking out of the bottom section that deals with the E-Brake i think.

Im stumped on what i need to replace or how to fix this leak, this could be the issue with my abs because the leak is covering the speed sensors and hub

Yeah that's what I thought. Do you think the fluid leaking all over the braking and speed sensor could cause the abs inop issue?

I ended up replacing my rear axel bearing and seal and it stopped the leaking, but the brake issue is still present... I'm getting my abs unit replaced so I will keep y'all updated if it fixes it.
