vanishing clutch fluid over night
so i awoke this morning to find a leak on the side of my driverside fender. upon greater investigation, i popped the hood and noticed that my clutch fluid reservoir tank was completely empty (i just topped it off last night). would anyone know which part would be the leaking culprit from these pictures (clutch master cyl, reservoir tank, any hoses, assembly)?? thanks

just filled the reservoir tank again last night to see if this morning it would happen again and without my suprise the clutch tank was empty again. i guess ill bring it in to have the master/tank/hose checked because something is for sure leaking
