Is the bracket flexing when you press the clutch pedal down? If not then you most likely need to renew the hydraulics.

Not uncommon for a hose to seep or pipe to leak. Are all the unions good? Does it pump up after a few applications or the fluid level down at all? I have the same prob on one of the Minis which only shows up after the winter lay up. It's a seeping link hose off the slave cylinder. It'll bleed up but after a few weeks it's as bad. Must get round to changing the hose.
