The brake pedal doesn't have pressure, and sounds like air escaping from the brake booster/master cylinder area, the revs drop also when the cars running and pedal is pressed. I have a spare booster of master cylinder if those might be the problem from a rhd...

Do you have someone else who can push the pedal while you get under the hood, so as to be SURE where the sound is coming from?

when you press the brakes do they work at all, the booster would probably be a good thing to try. There is a chance you blew a brake line but not sure it would make and air noise

There is a chance you blew a brake line but not sure it would make and air noise they did work the other day with a few pumps, but currently no pressure builds at all, Theres a brake line thats disconnected, I wasnt able to capture a pic but its one of the 4 line that runs to the rear of the car, might be brake...or hicus from before dunno.

Make sure all lines are connected securely to where they belong, then bleed the system

I'll double check the lines and bleed the system, i should add that the brake lights are not operational either.
