The later seems unlikely at this point as if that were the case then fluid could also leak out the same place.

Just bleed it, takes all of 5-10 minutes. Takes more time getting the car jacked up to get access to the bleed screw.
Bleeding isn't a bad idea. If anything, worst case scenario would be guaranteed, so I might as well take half an hour and bleed with fresh, 10 dollar fluid than dismiss it immediately as CSC failure.
