Default Opinion - front engine isolator / mount

Good evening. I'd like to get your opinion on the included pix. I am replacing it either way, but does the mount look bad at a glance? Thanks in advance.

It looks like it's saturated with oil and it's collapsed to the point where it's touching on top. Other than that, it's fine...

Oh, and it's ripped, too...
