Should I do the clutch now (maybe a performance one w/ lightweight flywheel)?

When it rains it pours.

The Boxster was out on the driveway the past week (covered of course) while I was fixing my "you used the wrong grease on the clutch bozo" problem with the 928. I'm ready to go back to diagnostics for the Boxster's idle and no power problem so I pushed her back into the garage to get ready for lifting. I look out in the driveway and there's a nice puddle of oil sitting there. After lifting her, I pulled the pans off and we have a rear main seal leak.

Since I'm going to have to pull the entire tranny and clutch out to do the RMS, should I just go ahead and replace the clutch? The current clutch has 82K miles on it but it still feels great. Also, if I replace it, has anyone put in a lightweight flywheel/performance clutch package in? How do you like it?

TIA!!
