your going to have to be more detailed. color of the fluid? is it constantly leaking? if it is then you should know by checking all the fluids. it can be just as something as condensation from you a/c

its hard to beleive that the brake fluid is leaking if the levels in both of the master cylinders are remaining the same. my advice is to search around the engine bay top to bottom with a flashlight and if you think it is brake fluid have someone apply the brake pedal and clutch pedal while you are looking to confirm where the leak is coming from if it is brake fluid. if not continue the search

well, you can clean everything and left the car over night with a clean cardboard so pinpoint the general location of the leak.
check the slave cylinder, if it's from the tran's housing it could very well be the rear main seal
