Oil Burning Questions Whoo Cough!

Ok so we have all determined i have a little oil seepage out of the side seals ( it blows a little blue smoke from first to second at high rpm) anyways can i slow this down a little by running a thicker oil? I would like to run castrol gtx only! what is the thickest oil i can saftely run and will this help the problem at all?

thanks..

UPDATE- Thicker oil and a treatment of cd-2 solved the problem.
