Conventional Oil in a car with 150K
So I had an oil leak about 4 weeks ago... Found out the pan was cracked... so I replaced with a new pan.. now it s leaking a a bit again just enough to run back on the manifold and give me that pleasant smell in the morning when the car is first warming up... I am 98% sure if coming from the pan again. I m using Mobile 1 currently, however was thinking about going conventional and to a heavier weight to see if the leak or seap stops... what do you guys think... 98 2.8 A4 with 150K on it... Runs like a champ other than the oil leak and the nasty smell in the morning. Oil levels remain pretty muh the same between changes.

No, stick with synthetic and keep going. I switched mine to synthetic 5w40 and it loves it. Yes you can have a possibility of seepage with the synthetic on an older engine. Just replace the gaskets if it leaks. It's worth it.
