Default 1986 150 yamaha water in my lower unit

I'm trying to decide if I should replace my lower unit as I have the kaluaha milky oil situation. Motor ran fine all last season and I was thinking of just monitoring the situation. My mechanic says its not really worth re-sealing a LU this old when you can get a new after mkt one for $800 or so (he will install for $200 labor). Any guidence is appreciated. The motor runs good and I think the power-head could hopefully go a few more seasons. Should I drop the grand and get a new LU, try and re-seal the old one myself (or get someone to do it) or just run it and keep and eye on the oil.....I dont have a trailer so if I dont do it and it fails it'll cost my $$ to pull the boat and re-cider block to get it done.
