Default 91' XJ Cylinder Head

All the posts about cylinder heads on the 2000s are crowding the search results.

But it appears that the head # on the 1991 XJ is 7120. Is that correct?

Oil is seeping out from under the cylinder head. No impact to engine performance that I can tell. Just have to add oil on the regular.

Should the gasket be replaced? If I have the time and $, should I just replace the head with a re-man? 200,300 on the odo..

Passenger side above the distributor?

It's up to you, but you could probably just put a gasket on it. These engines are very durable.
