Hard to tell in the pic, but it doesn't look like it's separating. You can *very carefully* put some air into it with it unmounted and looks for leaks (use soapy water) or dry rot.

I say very carefully because it's possible to over inflate an unloaded bag and damage it or hurt yourself. Shouldn't take more that 5-10psi to inflate it enough to find leaks.
