Well I know it is the front right side brake as the wheel gets scorching hot and that is where the burning brake smell is coming from. Good point on the master cylinder...I was leaning toward something that would be isolated on the front right. I hadn't heard of a line working as a one-way valve but that is a possibility. I suppose worth a shot. I'll try to get that replaced and see where I stand.
