Need oil choice to cure weeping on hi-mile car

[olddognewtrks]

Hi one and all. Things have hit the fan badly here at home, and I won't have time for proper research. I need advice.
I have a well maintained '90 Mazda 626, 2.2 I-4 with 192,000 on the clock. I've been using Rotella 5-40 Synthetic for the last few years. Problem: it's starting to weep oil and some is getting into the inside of the cam belt cover. I cannot afford to lose this car, and I know if the belt gets oiled, Ka-Boom. (I'm guessing it's an interference engine-I recently junked out my '89 Mitsu Mirage for an oil-failed belt and bent valves)
What oil might I swithch to that might help or cure seal weepage. Thanks much to any and all help

P.S. Please keep me in your prayers. Maybe some day I can explain.

Best advice man is some 10w40 Maxlife, Auto-rx, or to replace the seal or gasket.

Adam has some great advice. But youd be better off directly fixing your problem

Cost of seal/gasket < cost of engine.

Any brand-name high mileage oil -- including Supertech, NAPA, Sears and Meijer brand will do the trick - most likely.

Valvoline MaxLife stopped a leak in my sister's car (slow leak, about 2 drips a day), i'd definitely give that a try.

MAXLIFE 10W-40 and snug down any screws you can get to.
