No, it's the insides.
I will have a go at following the Haynes manual later in the week.

You will need a set of right angled internal circlip pliers with very thin legs. You will also need a dowel of some sort to help pkoe the piston out from the banjo end if stiff.
Take a pic of the sequence the piston and gubbins come out. Then buy a new piston kit for the master cylinder for the reassembly. Do not attempt to use the old one.
