Yes the pads were replaced, have fresh EBC HH's on now. I was very careful not to contaminate the pads during install.

That's the weird thing, is I'm not seeing leakage anywhere. Today I'm going to give my brakes a good workout to make any leaks more apparent, then reexamine the caliper pistons/dust seals, and if all is well there drain fluid, remove and inspect/clean master cylinder and replace fluid.

If it's still not fixed after this, I guess i'll just replace the entire front brake assembly. It's cheaper to buy a lightly used caliper and master cylinder on ebay or a forum than it is just for the OEM master cylinder rebuild parts.
