I am removing the entire rear end out of of my 1995 Firebird. There is a single brake line that runs from the master cylinder/proportioning valve to the rear end. There is a “T” connector for the lines to again split to each of the wheels and it bolts to the rear end housing. I have made dumb mistakes in the past and like to avoid them.

I assume that this bolt holding the t-connector to the rear housing isn’t going to drip brake fluid and it is indeed just a mount? I think I know the answer but I have thought that in the past and was wrong. Here is a picture of the t-connector

Thanks.

I’d rather ask a stupid question and avoid a mistake than to make the potential mistake without asking the question.
