You have suggested using a detergent oil 10W30 or a non detergent oil SAE 30.
Be aware that once you start using a non-detergent oil you can not use a detergent oil. Non detergent oils leave a sediment on parts which builds up over time. This is not a bad thing. But if you switch to a detergent oil the sediment will come loose and go into the oil access points of your engine and block lubrication.
I used a non-detergent SAE20 in a competiton car for years. We never had a problem with lubrication.
