In a 94 chevy 1500 4x4 5.7 200000 miles. Fluid blew out of the line right when it connects into the master clutch cylinder and my clutch is completly loose now. Manual tranny wont go into gear. This is the second time this has happened Is it really the Master clutch cylinder or is there something else wrong with my clutch?

If you actually saw the leak, that pretty much proves it. I don't know if you have a repairable problem with the line or the cylinder is bad from your description though.

It seems like there may be to much pressure on the master clutch cylinder because this is the second time this has happened in the same place. Could there be something going on inside the clutch that may cause this?

Do you think that it is worth it to try and repair the line going into the master clutch cylinder or should I just buy another one?

I can't answer that without seeing the problem. The lines aren't really repairable. You would just have to replace the line if that's where the problem is.
