Was moving my 105 R7020 bits over to the new bike. Bleeding my brakes as normal. Rear was done in a flash and all good there. Front one, for the life of me I couldn't get all the air out of the system and it just feels mushy. When I put everything back on, lever goes all the way to bar, no sharpness in the braking then pistons seemed to reset very slowly after braking. I had a look around the shifter and noticed this crack that isn't on the left shifter. Is this the cause of my pain, or is this a superficial crack and there is something else amiss?
