On ours, one of the through-deck bolts had a crack in the head, so I replaced them all. The rest was fine, although ours hadn't been leaking for as long as this one. Polish it all up and check for cracks (can use dye if you want to be fancy). Unlikely there'll be any problems with the lower bracket, it's massive.
