Perhaps the piston was too far out before. So there is too much fluid in the MC. Crack open one slave to release the excess and see if that takes care of it.
With hose, etc. of course

That rubber boot would likely hold in the disc, even if the circlip broke. So since it “came out” of the rubber, it sounds like the center of the disc is some how flawed. But FWIW, I can’t imagine how that would happen unless something was quite odd in the assembly.
