Standard oil leak at the head/block

Would it be advisable to replace the head bolts on my 2004 Arc which has oil seepage to the point where it's annoying me sufficiently to try and stop it, car only has 90k miles but seeing occasional oil drip on the garage floor.
I ask because on 1999 I had that seepage at the head and replaced all the head bolts around 100k and when I sold the car at 170k miles there was zero oil seeping from it. I think Swedecar had said the 1999 had substandard head bolts - but I'm thinking of replacing the ones on the 2004 anyways .
On the 1999 I bought them from Rock Auto for around $30 I think.
I have never cared for oil leaks or seepage for that matter and yes it is coming from the head/block area on the passenger side.
