Temp repair or new back gutter and step flashing?

[s.gebb]

Hi all, looking for some opinions.

Got a few cracks in step flashing and small one on a fold of the back gutter.

Temp fix with a silicone / flashband combo or pony up and redo the whole lead work?

Paid to have scaffolding up, but still don't want to create extra work if not absolutely necessary.

All advice appreciated
Thanks

I see it's a slate roof - ouch!

Denso and Evercryl to patch it over before the crack gets worse might help.

If you have scaffold up , why not just do it right now ?

Most patch products are short term fixes . More so on lead
