No, that doesn't look right - the mounting holes are inclined so the reservoir will sit on an angle.

Forester GT will work. - it looks like this:

bear in mind the 1 1/16" "turbo" master cylinders will give you quite a high and hard pedal. Whilst my car does not have a vacuum booster, I've driven vacuum boosted sierras with the 1 1/16" cylinder and they still have that high/hard feel. (and notably, the '05 STi we owned also had a surprisingly high and hard pedal, even with Brembo calipers)

You may find the 15/16" non-turbo cylinders will give a more progressive pedal.

big thanks steve!

Will a 15/16 will be enough to work on 4 calipers?
And Should i look for specific year?

3/4” works on 4 calipers.

Can’t help on year. I just get mine from pull-it-yourself wreckers. The one in my photo will fit- I just googled forester GT master cylinder. They are shared with some legacy models. I have never seen the style with the inclined bolts before.
