I suppose there is some chance the paint dissolution is due to residue of
brake fluid in that location from some previous time (when the pressure
switch was removed/replaced). If you are seeing liquid brake fluid now, then
it is obviously leaking, and should be replaced before it starts generating
symptoms. These switches are notoriously short-lived.
