I don't know the MGA single master system but the MGB masters have a
very small bypass port leading from the reservoir into the cylinder. If
that's blocked then fluid won't be able to fill the cylinder, and only
spitting if the clutch pipe is removed does tend to indicate that.
Also with the MGB you can reverse-fill/bleed the system from the slave
bleed port either with an EeziBleed on that or by connecting the caliper
and that port. In the latter case open both bleed ports and use brake
pedal pressure gently to see if you can push fluid up into the reservoir.
If so then it's probably the pressure seal and/or bore.

This MGA has a single reservoir. The brake side is working, the clutch
side is not. I can not get any pressure pumping the pedal. Here is what
I/'/ve tried so far:
