S3 Air Cond

'Morning Chaps-
My 1984 S3 air conditioning system is leaking Freon too much (about 30
ounces a year).  I suspect the compressor 'cause it has an "oil slick" on
it.  I don't mind putting in a "new" compressor, doesn't cost all that much
for a REBUILT one.  BUT I do worry about rebuilt things after many bad
experiences with alternators, water, and power steering pumps on my
American cars.  (Yes, I know the Jag compressor is a GM unit, all the more
reason to worry).  Then my brother tells me that GM in the mid 1980's made
compressors with teflon vane seals(?) that were not worth a tinkers dam. 
So, now I'm doubly worried.  Yeah, I know the rebuilt units are
"guaranteed" but will the guarantee also replace the Freon that would be
lost????  I would be most comfortable with a GM new factory unit-but-
haven't priced those.  Anyway, any suggestions welcome, thanks.
Cherio - Tom
