Once I got the front wheel and fender cover off, it was easy to see what was leaking.

After wiping some of the crud off

According to the service manual cd, the part is the 'Brake Pressure Control Valve.' On Ford Parts Network, I saw a part listed as a 'Pressure Metering Valve' listed in the brakes section. If that is the part, it's gonna set me back $125.
Does anybody know if this part is fixable? The inlet and outlet nuts were tight, and the brake line appeared to be fine. I am going to go take a closer look, and I'll post more pictures if I find anything more.
