I'd definitely do the water pump just because they're cheap and it's so much easier to do it right while you've got the engine out.
I've heard of the oil pumps being a known problem in some jeeps of that era - but can't say for sure if it's a problem in THAT engine.
Definitely follow up with that one on the jeep board. All I can say is I've got a 96 and haven't had a problem with mine yet.
