If needed it isn't hard to sand that sealing surface flat.

rest up for a day (you deserve it). Rome wasn't built in a day & mistakes can happen when we are tired/preoccupied. I'm gonna lay in bed & watch football all day.

You guys had to give my brain a kick start. I went out with a 3x5 block and some sandpaper. The top was flat but it had the cutter marks in the top surface. I sanded the top until all cutter grooves were gone. Put the top back on, pumped the heck out of the brakes and no more leak. Thanks for all your input. How did you keep the metal dust out of the brake fluid?

I am wondering why pumping the brakes makes fluid level rise in the MC. It doesn't make the level rise. What happens is that until the fill ports are closes it will squirt a bit of fluid back into the reservoir. The faster/harder you hit the pedal the higher it will splash. If you ever bled brakes by pumping the pedal you seen it.
