'01 headbolts (Anders)

got a new to me 2001 9-5 Aero, auto trans 150k miles. The car has all highway miles but not overly preventive on maintence. Overall it's a pretty solid car. It is leaking oil down the accessory side of the engine, but nothing that adds up to a major loss. I noticed that the VIN # falls into the batch of cars with loose head bolts. Having done a headgasket on my '97 9k, I've very familiar with this engine but at what point is a leak worth doing this much work? Should I try to get new bolts and replace them without doing the gasket? When I did the head gasket on the B234R, I purchased new bolts from eeuroparts. They were pictured and came as number 4. I took number 2 out of the 9k. Now on their site they have number 3. Advice?
