Cap/ Cooling system questions 850 1995

I have a very, very slow leak in my cooling system. Today I discovered a crusty, salty, whitish buildup around the expansion tank cap. I assume this means the cap should be replaced?

In your folks experience is it ever necessary to replace the expansion tank and the small hose that runs out of the top of the tank? I'm considering replacing those 2 items and perhaps the upper radiator hose all at the same time.

BTW - I replaced my radiator and the lower rad hose in March.

Thx,
J
