Can't tell from the angles of the pics, but I would change that as soon as you get a chance. Probably sealing right now, but it will only tear more when you least expect it to.

Yeah I doubt it's leaking now but I'm sure it will eventually. Pic up a silicone replacement from 034 or APR and you'll never have to worry about it again.

my dads audi had same problem i just cut the part that was broken and there settle works fine did it today. But if you do plan on changing it just buy silicon forget those useless OEM.
