All I have ever seen were hydraulic assemblies mounted externally to the transmission housing. A bear to deal with but when get functional are pretty decent. One caution, SOME of these required hydraulic oil NOT brake fluid in the master cylinder system. Need to get a service manual to verify.

580B brakes are easy to work on. They are a band brake that the housing comes off easily with a few bolts on the side of he rear/transmission housing. There are little springs that hold the band from dragging when released. Change them while you are there as they are not expensive but when they brake the brake drags. Last time i replaced brakes on one I got them from broken tractor. Good brake parts and lot less money than case.
