#1: if the SHOP says you have a master cylinder leaking and they do not know what to do,then Get it OUT of that shop.
Needs another master..remove and replace.
#2: State what the Oil pressure problem is,maybe someone can give you advice on that.

sounds like mr clueless to me,best $$ you can spend rt now is on a haynes manual,yes DIY all the way,if the car has been sitting along time and not driven,the clutch and brake m/c have a tendency to go bad,symptom i usually get is no pressure being created to activate brakes or clutch,again,the haynes manual has a breakdown on symptoms and poss. causes for all the diff. sys. of the car
