Engine 79 CJ Ignition Module Issue

Hello all. I'm having an issue that appears to be fairly common, but am looking for insight as to best options from those who have been there. My issue is that the ignition module on my 79 CJ7 is oozing its epoxy down the drivers fender. I'm not sure when it will go bad, but I'd like to replace. My question is whether there is any issue just replacing with the $30ish part available at O'Reilly's. Seems worth a shot, but is this ill-advised? Is there an upgrade that I should consider instead?
I should note that this is just a rig that we run country roads on nice nights, drive very light off road trails and do ice cream runs. I like to keep a mostly stock look and am not looking to squeeze more power out of the 258.
Thanks for any insight or direction.
