There are some revisionist elements in the CPC (I'm wary of Li Qiang for example) but I definitely wouldn't call Xi a revisionist. His installment as General Secretary was more or less an orthodox marxist coup against revisionist Shanghai politicians.

I have alot of respect for Li Qiang, and while I understand being wary of officials advocating even for limited market forces, he seems to be one of the more genuine and driven and simultaneously pro-marxist officials in the party.

Is there anything in particular that makes you very wary of him?

He just seems a little more pro-private enterprise then I feel comfortable with. He at least seems competent and I don't think he is an outright revisionist like Gorbachev, but enough to make me skeptical.
