Is it oil or brake fluid which is more likely.
Whichever it is it’s not meant to be there. Should be dry for vacuum.

It will be a faulty seal in the servo hydraulic cylinder, which will allow the vacuum in the servo chamber to suck fluid through from the hyraulic side .A rebuild of the hydraulic cylinder is needed
