If it's any consolation, I just went through the same exercise on a 61 jag a
couple months ago, only to be followed with the similar chain of failures on
the same car's braking system more recently.  (Started with booster, then
hoses, then went to M. Cyl,  and then both rear calipers)

The process is designed to save $ on parts, but ends up taking a lot of time
and waaaaay to much hydraulic fluid.

My short BJ8 hydraulic clutch story:
1. Leaking clutch slave hose - I pulled and replaced, and bled clutch
2. New slave hose pressurized old slave cylinder and caused it to leak - I
pulled and rebuilt, replaced, and bled clutch
3. New slave hose and new slave cylinder caused old master cylinder to leak
- I pulled and rebuilt and replaced, and bled clutch
