Subject: [Leica] PORTRAIT LENS: Summicron, Elmar, Elmarit?

For the smaller prints ( 11 x 14 and smaller) been considering
an M6 with a 90mm lens.  Which lens would you recommend?  I
prefer the Leica look to my medium and large format lenses. I
would prefer to use 35mm for smaller prints even though I would
be sacrificing any retouch work on the negative.  Also planned
on my own processing and printing (haven't done that for 25 years)
for my 35mm work, and process only for medium and large format.
Which head and lens would you recommend for the Leica enlarger?

BTW...
My films are NPS 160 @100, Neopan 1600 @ 800, and XP2 400 @200.
What chemicals and paper would all of you all recommend for  printing
and processing.
