Default TPMS is out

My 2003 50th Ann vette need to replace TPMS sensor on the front left side tire with Service Tire Monitor System message and I think the sensor battery is gone , the rest TPMS are ok.
Do I need to replace the bad one or replace all of them ?
Need to buy GM sensors or after maket ?
Any reccomendation tire shop in Southern California , Orange County area?

Thank you

Someone told me that the TPMS battery is last up to 10 years, my C5 purchased in 2003 (well, is nearly 10 years now). I do not want to just replace one , it may come up with the bad one nextime. Brand new TPMS will last for many years to come don't you think?

I remembered few years ago I did tires learning I got the horn sounding.
This time is not. DIC shows "FRONT Lxxx R 32 PSI"
My guess is Right tire is OK but L tire shows xxx
Any idea why?
