How is the boot attached to the top? Maybe the rubber at the mount point of the boot just tore. It can happen after a while - I don't think its much to worry about.

do you mean pull up on the bottom of the boot? i did that and saw no oil. i guess ill check the top a little later. also that rubber boot, whats inside of it? cause i was feeling it at the top and it feels like something hard is inside. thanks.

yes I meant the bottom of the boot, you wouldn't find oil at the top lol. The top part of the rubber boot contains the bumpstop. That's to keep metal from hitting metal when your suspension bottoms out. If there is no leak, I wouldn't worry.
