[mcinque103]

i know the "thing" has something to do w/ the abs. not sure what it's called though. anyway, what's this orange/rust looking stuff on it? it's also on the brake booster.

I hope you know that FLICKR doesnt allow you to nab pics. you'll have to find another source to host your pics.

If memory serves me correct, it's some sort of anti-corrosive, so that it doesn't rust. But i could be totaly wrong on this one.

i'm just worried that its something leaking. anyone else have any idea?

I haven't looked at my car to see if they did this too.

It is most likely a marking paint to say those connectors have been tested for leaks and are ok. My first impression was a "tamper" mark factories put on all fitting. If the lines or paint is disturbed they can claim it was modified and won't cover warranty repairs. My Jeep has these on everything.
