Clutch Parts Needed (5spd)

Trying to narrow down what i need to order and get the best deal on part(s).

The clutch pedal falls flats to the floor and doesnt come back to the spring. Master cylinder under the dash looks lightly moist but isn't leaking at all nor does there appear to be fluid dripping anywhere. I replaced the clutch itself a cpl years ago but not the slave or master cylinders. In stopping on a hill and using first gear or reverse to hold the car, it will slip back to some extent. I was able to use the car today before the clutch pedal quit, at no time prior was there any slipping punching it in any gear. Is it likely the Slave Cylinder that needs to be replaced??

Replace the slave and master as well as the line with a one piece stainless steel hose.
If money is tight narrow down which one you see leaking and just get that, but I definitely recommend a one piece ss line if you haven't upgraded yet.
Oem master and slave if you get them IMO.
I had 2 bad aftermarket masters before I gave up and went Oem.

At the end of the day, didnt need a new master or slave, just ran a direct line from the master to the slave and bypassed the mess. best clutch action ever...
