leaking pressure valve hanging from boiler

Hi guys. Seen a leak from the valve attached in the pic. Its connected to a pipe coming from the boiler. Is it a big issue to replace it ? Or is it a sign of something much worse. Thanks.

Looks like a glycerine filled gauge combined with a blow off.

Just drain off some pressure. Fit a tee and go gauge one side and blow off the other
