Brad is right. You can usually get wheel cylinders at any NAPA store. Also, make sure it's not gear oil leaking out due to a bad wheel bearing/seal. You can pop the seal out and if it looks out of round at all in the inner diameter, you can be sure the bearing is bad too. Buy some brake cleaner to clean the gooped up parts, and if the brake pads are badly soaked, you're best off to replace them too. Wheel cylinders and wheel bearings are both pretty easy to do, but even easier if done at the same time, because both jobs require dismantling all the brake hardware. Neither is a particularly expensive job either. You may just want to go ahead and do the whole shebang while you're in there.

Actually, you might be surprised that you can find good parts at a local auto parts shop. Make a few phone calls and see if they have the parts, and if they carry AC Delco (or a "good" brand) parts in stock. It has been years since I had to do this, but I found cylinders at the first local parts place I went to.
