Is my strut blown?

It looks like I have oil leaking out of my rear driver side strut on my 97gtp coupe. The car only has 44K miles and seems to drive fine suspension wise no excessive bouncing or anything. Should I change it out and if so is it difficult to change? can I only change one side? or do I have to do both.

 


It may only have 44k miles but it's 17 years old and been supporting the vehicles weight for that long.

It's not blown out persay, but it's leaking and will only get worse. At that age, soon they will all start to do it. It's not wise to just replace one, always do them in pairs, the other side is aged and doesnt react the same as a new part.
 
Ok, I ordered 2 ac delco professional ready strut assemblies for the rear got a good deal on em 80 bucks each shipped from amazon
