U-SEAL - discrete leaking. Replace or live with it

I tought I may have a head gasket problem.
My mechanic finally diagnosed it as a leaking U-seal - far le$$ trouble...
The leak is extremely small. A little "drooling" and that's it.
I wonder what would happen if i just leave it that way.
Any risk?
Also, I was told that , given that I am replacing the U-seal I should replace the crankshaf gasket as well, taking advantage of the labor costs anyway incurred.
Any thoughts on this?
