It didn't appear bad in your video. However, if a visual inspection reveals oil saturated rubber, it probably wont be long.

Another item that probably needs to be addressed is how oil saturated the tie rod ends in that area. A likely suspect is the turbo drain grommet. This is an inexpensive repair and may be an easy task if not to dry rotted. It also has an added benefit of lowering oil consumption.
