Evo 5 leaking shock absorber

hey guys I've noticed that my front right shock absorber is leaking quite a bit of grease. Is this something I should seriously worry about? Also, would anyone know the part number or where I can get an OEM one? Any info would be great!

That shock is blown for sure and the other side is just waiting to go as well so you should definetly replace both sides as soon as you can or the ride is about to get real loud and bumpy

^ Yup, you've got a dead strut. Best to replace both fronts, or all four if you can swing it.
