Rebuild or just reseal trans and t-case while out for clutch

So my truck is a 70 GMC K2500. Stock 350, SM465, NP205. Less than 90,000 original miles. This spring I need to replace the clutch but other than that everything shifts perfectly fine without any weird / worn bearing noises. I do have plenty of leaks though since it is all 44 years old...

While I have everything out for the clutch should I go ahead and rebuild the trans and transfer case or just put new seals and gaskets in? What would you do? Should I be fine, bearing wise, until it's next clutch job?

Any suggestions on a clutch (I'm thinking NAPA) or tips for pulling everything out? I will probably pull the engine too so it can get some new gaskets, maybe a cam too

Thanks ahead of time!

I had my T-case resealed, they do have to partially dissasemble, i just asked them to look for anything bad and they said it was fine.

That's kind of what I'm thinking as long as everything looks and feels pretty good once it is opened up. Thanks!
