Unhappy Leaky RMS on my newly aquired '02

I took the car in for an inspection by our local indi shop. The mechanic told me that everything on the car was excellent including the clutch, brakes, etc. except for a $30 oil filler tube and a $30 seal. Of course the $30 seal is a RMS and the labor was quoted as $800-900 for a days work. He said not to change the clutch or flywheel in the process because they are in excellent shape. He also said it is a slow to medium leak and doesn't need immediate attention.

My question is, how many of you still drive around (and refilling oil of course) with a leaky RMS? An important note, there is never oil left under the car in my garage when the car is parked.

If I do have it changed, is there anything else I should have done at the same time?
