high mileage oil w/ new seals

hi, i've been slowly mixing in some high mileage oil with the anti leak stuff in it in to my oil, and now i just changed all the seals on the front of the engine. should i switch back to ordinary oil? i guess the rear main seal might start leaking then?

it won't cause the new seals to swell and maybe even pop out?
