Re-torque and/or replace head bolts as PM?

Should I re-torque or replace my head bolts as preventative maintenance?
I have a 2004 9-5 bought new. At 157,000+ miles there is a very minor weeping of oil around the head gasket. This has gone on a while. it's not bad, dosn't drip oil, just enough to wet the block w/oil.
Would it make sense to do this job? Any downside? Thanks!
