I have received reliable information that the FUZZ is on a run to check the Master cylinders of any airplanes over fifty years of age. They're particularly looking for legality in the paperwork. ( as if the FUZZ inspectors could recognize a master cylinders lineage)

However legality still needs to be established. I'd contact Parker and see if they have an STC or if this is PMA's to replace the Cessna product which BTW is over $4000 if you look it up on IwantCessnaParts.com
I will gladly sell my master cylinders with fresh O rings to anyone for half that price.
