Another reason for blending

I make my own blend at home using Mobil 1 and regular Mobil 10W-30. I do this because I am afraid of synthetic-induced leaks. I used full synthetic in my wife's Jeep a few times and it starting dripping all over the garage. So I went back to regular motor oil, and the leaks stopped.
I know there MAY be a difference in the quality of seals used in a Saab over a Jeep, but if Saab uses a blend, then that's what I'll stick with rather than risk the annoying drips.
