cOMMON FOR THE SLAVE CYLINDER TO leak with aging of the cup. only a few $ for a new cup and boot kit, remove and clean slave up, check for bad scratches, reassemble with clean brake fluid, refit, connect hose, open bleed nipple, gravity should bleed it ok. Dont forget to top up m/cyl reservoir, as its shared with brakes in many 323...

If your slave is ageing I would get it done with the clutch or you will most likely find it to fail in the following weeks/months after you pop in your new clutch
For the cost of it I would call it insurance
Thats just my opinion as I like to take precautions when upgrading
Imagine a visit to the side of the road with no clutch pedal when your clutch is brand new
