If you pull the boot off, you need to clean it the CV really well and then repack and new boot and clamps. If all the grease was gone, you should probably replace the axle
Mine was just replaced with a FEQ one which costs under $150. Many of the non factory ones don't fit well and some are too big to fit in the hub.
My indy mechanic who also tracks his Boxster has been very happy with the FEQ quality an uses them himself
Also note, some axles are hollow at the hub end and will squirt some greese out when new
