Oral Sex. Both have HVS II
Can we get HVS II in the mouth by performing unprotected oral sex since we both already have HSV II?
No reason to take precaution. The only one is the one I've stated, and even then it's incredibly low risk to transmit as you both have the virus and antibodies to it, in addition to oral HSV2 being rare (only 3% of all oral herpes infections). I never ever give it a second thought with my partner and I both have herpes.
Quite honestly, the doc's on the expert's forum are even less conservative than us - they would probably say no risk all around. Feel free to post there too if you have your doubts here.

Good news. So do you mean "absolutely NO reason to take percautions instead of the way you worded it "no reason NOT to take percautions".
