Default Master cylinder rebuild options

Does anyone know of a master cylinder rebuild kit? I took out the gold 78 this past weekend & was shocked to find the brake pedal going much closer to the floor than in the past. I found the rear reservoir was all but empty. Bled out the system & found zero leaks, or any evidence of a past leak. I am guessing the master has a super slow drip & it has been evaporating over the years. I honestly don't think I have looked at the brake fluid on this car in 10 years. I normally take it out at least once a year & put a few miles on it. This is the first time I have driven it it 2 years.

I am not big on replacing the master with a cheap $30 rebuilt or aftermarket. Would feel better if I can run a hone through the bore & replace the seals. Maybe its not the original anyway (like my seat belts ) Does anyone know how to tell them apart? There is still a sticker on the side of it, but its unreadable. just a white square.
