Grade of oil for MX-5

A couple of members I know in the San Diego club had been using Mobil 1 and
changed away from it due to slow seepage through the engine seals.

IIRC the very early synthetics (15+ years ago) had these problems, but
not since then. They were "missing" a compound which swells the rubber

160k km, Mobil1, no leaks ...
