Definative water pump question

The NA 80 99 weeps a slight amount of coolant at start up. Once the block is warm it doesn't lose a drop. Drove 300 miles without any loss of coolant.
My question is what is the best way to replace the pump when I get around to it? I have two impellers, shaft, and the infamous rebould kit from ebay. At 105 (reg, oil changes) k miles I am assuming that the block is not worn where the pump seats. I have a home made tool which has worked well for me for several water pump changes.
I did a search and did not get a complete answer on which parts to use and the best method to insure a good seal. Doug and Bob...let's hear your expertise.
Thanks,
Gregg C
