Its only a cover. I don't know if you can get a replacement, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

They are easily available new, you just need and excuse to release the pressure in the system, remove the top ball joint and replace by sliding over!

I know of at least one guy who does without them completely so he can see if the knuckle joints are in place correctly in the hydro bags.
