OK kids, here ya' go.

The first number is your cold viscosity, the second number your operating temperature viscosity.

10w-30 means you're running 10 weight oil that wont thin out past 30 weight at normal operating temp.

I run Mobil Clean 5000, 5w30 year round

I considered Mobil 1, but I heard it has a tendency to bleed though the seals on high-mileage engines...

I also run OEM filters or WIX, what ever I can get my hands on at the time. Along with my Password JDM oil plug :)

Mobil One 10w30, Socal 118k on the odometer and i havent seen any oil bleed through anywhere. But then again i am not the original owner so maybe work was done to the engine but i doubt it.
