Default leaking fuel inlector pump in cold weather

I have a 1993 w250 with 172000 m. When I start it in the cold it leaks until it warms up. Should I rebuild it or run it? It runs great and am afraid to have it rebuilt. And it is expensive. But also think if I do not it will finally give out and in a bad spot on the road.

If it otherwise runs fine, just reseal it.
