Broken Wire above the ignition coils.

Hi there,
I was changing the coils this morning and realized that the plastic wire/hose coating had a crack in it, but the actual yellow cable inside was undamaged.
Is this something I should be replacing immediately?

That's how it's made. It's sheathing to protect the wires and it's meant to be openable like that.

It's called split loom... name is fairly self explanatory.

What kind of coils?
