You should've headed south sooner, the cold got you. There is no need to replace the good looking brake shoes but the oil needs to be burned out of them with a torch. If I was doing it myself I would do the one side with the major leak and not worry about the other side as warmer temperatures may solve the problem.
I disagree. It is possible that the warmer weather will stop the leak. But, the fact it leaked, shows it is bad. Replace it now. It will need replacing soon anyway, might as well do them both at the same time.
