The normal pipework route for a servo is sideways from the banjo - if this is what you intend you need to remove the bleed nipple from the side outlet and connect your new or altered pipe to the servo here. The rear facing connector outlet should be blanked off - the bleed nipple you've removed may fit, but I can't remember whether both outlets are the same thread.

Why not get rid of all the bits and screw your brake-pipe straight into the master cylinder ?

I think I've lost track of what you are trying to do. Why are you taking your feed from the master towards the rear? That's the long way round to the servo!

Hi so have i , i think, ive just fitted a servo under the bonnet and removed all the pipes back and front now trying to figure out what goes were the thing im a bit confused about is where to take the feed for the brakes on the master cyl i see from some other posts about blocking one of the two feeds off so i presumed i could block either of the two off and use the other as the feed.

Here's the instructions that come with the ESM ford based kit. You can see the recommended routing and I have added additional thread information.
