Typically, testing for brake fluid contamination is done at the master cylinder reservoir for obvious reasons. For moisture, it's probably the best place since air bubbles rise and the reservoir is located at the high point of the brake system. So you're getting a sample of the worst moisture...

Thanks for the welcome and responses! My concern is that I will follow the application of penetrating oil with backing out the screw to perform the bleed. As stated above, I guess it will be okay as long as I maintain one-way suction/pressure on the brake fluid so there is no backflow into the...
