2003 S430 trunk lift strut - leaking

The lift strut on my S430, weeps fluid at the 90 Degree elbow where it enter the strut body. red circle below
As its a swivel joint, I suspect there is an o-ring at the connection point that needs to be replaced.

My question is how do you remove the swivel fitting without destroying it?
