Leaky CV

[Guitarplaya39]

Just want some opinions... So I finally raised the truck up and removed the front driver side wheel to check my wheel bearing, and as Im spinning the hub, I notice some lovely pink goop slinging from a crack in the inner CV boot. Ive never had an issue with it before, but it looks like its already been "repaired" with a hose clamp. The pink grease that is leaking out has the consistency of... Ranch dressing? Sorry, first thing that came to mind lol. Its not very thick though, like water may have already gotten in?
So, since ill be replacing the hub/bearing assembly, should I bite the bullet and replace the half shaft while Im at it? It doesnt make any noise or anything.. Yet...

If it's already been ghetto-clamped then you're looking at a reboot or replace at some point, might as well go ahead with it.
