So does common sense.  It's a strangely ambiguous phrase - it might
mean that one or two drops don't matter, or it might mean that steady
dripping doesn't matter.  The fuel injection section is quite clear
when talking about similar things.

# 211 611 243.  "Unbedingt ersetzen".  JAWOHL!  Also the self-locking
bolts (# 010 332 04) and the clevis pin clip (# 902 541 01).  Just been
checking the microfiche.  Looks a fairly straighforward job.

Always do replace the cheap bits around any expensive bits I do.  I
need to flush out the brakes anyway - I just checked and it's just
about two years since they were done.
