Leaking fluid/oil by ABS

Hey guys, just been driving around the FC the past few days and I smelt a burning oil smell as if some oil had dripped on to the manifold or something. Popped the hood and by the ABS unit on passenger side (at least I think it's the ABS), there was some what I think is brake fluid pooled where it mounts. The brakes work fine though and there's no problem with them. I haven't noticed any other leakage either and the previous owner says he doesn't know what could be wrong.

those pumps are notorious for leaking...most people just bypass it with the mazdatrix kit as a new pump is VERY expensive.
