well hey it's sunday morning I'm gonna throw in my 2 cents worth... I think I would change as many seals as possible right now, for the most part... especially if it has sat for a while, you most certianly are going to have leaks shortly after you hit the road, personally I find this discouraging after having put my blood sweat and tears into a project then 3 days after it is "finished" find that I have 2 or 3 leaks to fix and its back to the shop or worse yet "run it that way" for a couple of weeks till the parts come in, making a mess and taking all the fun out of crawling under the hood again.

But on the other hand some leaks actually might get better my, steering rack stopped leaking after I got it on the road for a little bit. Although I would absolutly change any that you have easy access to while making other repairs.
