What to replace when the rear main seal is shot?

I'm afraid my rear main seal (behind flywheel) is shot. I got under the cr this weekend to check an oil leak and found the freshest oil seeming to drip from the flywheel bellhousing drain hole. I suspect the rear main seal. This is my only car so I can't afford to have it off the street for more than a weekend. I'm looking for suggestions of what I should replace while my tranny is down. I have a 2.0L 4-cyl that only has about 13k on it. I can see oil on the flywheel so suspect it's migrated to the clutch disk by now. I'm thinking of replaceing the clutch disk, flywheel o-ring, rear main seal, needle bearing--anything else? Thanks for your help!
