You can get a few different types of additives that do help. Have a look in your local motor factors. But most are pretty limited as to what they can do so I wouldnt expect a miracle cure. I can imagine it being a daunting task changing gaskets on a midship engine, but it is really your best option

Lots of little oilways in there as well Do you want to plug them Too Ghanging a couple of gaskets now is a lot easier than fixing the damage from a Rod letting go at 7000rpm though lack of oil
