1. Clean engine of all built up grunge, top & bottom - fin clogging can reduce cooling effect. Good threads on how to do this.
2. After a spirited drive , get under the engine at night with a strong torch and look carefully for seapage e.g. oil return tubes etc etc
3. Get the comp & leakdown to assess how old this engine is - with diagnosis you can plan for treatment

btw what type/weight of oil are you using?
