Anyone have any luck finding he small parts for the code levers, I need some snap clips and other small parts?
LBS best option here?
What exactly do you need?

You can find snap rings and o-rings at your local hardware store and they are compatible.

If you are getting fluid coming out at the lever it usually in the rear seal. It's an "x" ring, it gets messed up from dirt in the bore and/or running the pads contact all the way out. It's pretty easy to rebuild the MC though, about a 10-20min job.

What happened is the previous owner of the brake ran the Pad adjust all the way out then keep turning. The adjuster backed off the piston. This made it so the threads on the shaft got all chewed up. I re-threaded the parts so they will work but the snap ring in there broke and im not sure where it goes or where to get a new one. Im planing on not running the pad adjuster for the weekend just to get the brake together and working so can i do that with out the snap ring?
