In order to find out what trailer leaf spring is correct you will need to measure from the center of the eye to the end of the other side while there is no weight on the trailer. Since you have a slipper type spring you will also need to measure the width. I have attached a list of options for you once you get the above info but from the photo it looks like you have need the 2-Leaf Slipper Spring w/ Flat End part # e29SR which measures 30" long and is 1-3/4" wide. I recommend you replace the springs in pairs as the trailer could very likely lean to one side with only one new spring installed.
