Yes you do need to replace it. What happened is the insulation has melted on one of the windings. That in turn  collapses the magnetic field, and creates either less voltage or less amperage. That is if it is on the charging side of the stator. If it is on the Ignition side it will reduce the power to the Ign coil, and produce a weaker spark.

I'm not sure what you mean about the Oil Leak. Can you post a Pict of where it is weeping from? It Always means a seal is going if you see engine oil in the stator housing or Variator housing.

Looks like the Stator to me too.  Not ignition coil.  I replaced mine on my Xciting 250.  Be sure to buy the gasket between the cover and the block.  Use gasket sealer too.  Probably the hardest joint to seal I can remember.
