<<<<Anyways, I know what that problem is but while inspecting the slave cylinder I noticed a green fluid dripping from beneath the engine. Oh No! I am really hoping this is not a head problem since the heads were replaced 30k ago.>>>>

I have had several Vanagons. Leaks come in all sizes and stem from a variety of reasons. My last two were from leaky hoses. I have an '85 which only leaks when it is very cold. I have driven it numerous miles after refilling and bleeding and it runs well, doesn't overheat, and doesn't leak until it gets cold again. Your leak may not be serious.
