MY12 Front Strut Leaking - Options?

Having just fixed the oil cooler leak on my MY12 4.4 TDV8 (2 x new oil coooler gaskets and a cooolant flush) I've now discovered I have a leak in the nearside front suspension strut airbag, noticed it was leaning a little this morning so raised to off road height and can clearly feel air rushing out as it extends upwards Big Cry

It has the continuous variable damping option and having checked out the cost of a complete replacement strut, I'm wondering if just the airbag can be replaced?

Any advice appreciated!

For the full strut -

Aftermarket £360 +VAT
OE £410 +VAT
Genuine £702 + VAT

Prices from lrparts.net

Guessing you could find slightly cheaper if you searched around but gives a general idea.

Mine has the same ailment, porous around the base of one with a multitude of pinholes. i'm currently undecided if its worth replacing just the bag as I've already recalibrated the shocks once to restore their higher speed performance and suspect their slow speed damping isn't what it should be.
