While I don't have much experience, it looks more like the coolant elbow to me which is easier to change. But from what I've heard about the LIM and UIM, if they haven't been done before it probably better to do the whole works.

Easy fix, remove the tensioner and replace the elbows. It'* the O ring that'* leaking. Just make sure you clean up the surface inside the LIM and use a bit of lube on the O ring.
