Half/Drive shaft recommendations

Hey guys,

So my 2000 S has a torn trans side boot on the passenger side.
And what's more concerning is that it's all done slinging grease and obviously has been for a while.

My question is.

Try and repack a joint that's been running dry for who knows how long and fit a new boot ?
Get a new OEM shaft ?
Get a new aftermarket shaft ?

I'm personally leaning more towards one of the latter two.
Seems somewhat silly to poor time and effort into trying to salvage something that at best will be an unknown.

On the other hand, I'm not getting any bad noises from it and I honestly don't know how well this holds up to running dry.

Opinions wanted

Thank you
