Answer
The worst case is that both of the hydraulic clutch cylinders need to be replaced, the clutch master cylinder on the firewall and the clutch slave cylinder, you may get by by just replacing the master cylinderbut the slave cylinder should be checked. To just replace the master cylinder will probably run about $300 tops parts and labor, may be a less depending on who works on it.
