Best spark plug for a 22r that burns lots of oil & other blow-by Qs?

I'm trying to do everything I can to continue running my 1984 22r without pulling it and doing a ring job. My question is, since I've got so much blow-by is there a spark plug that will burn off all that oil and not foul up as bad? I'm running densos' now. Also, is there an engine treatment that you'd recommend to help seal up those worn rings? The auto parts store has like 15 different products that claim to help worn rings, but I'd like to hear what other people have tried with success.

Thanks,
Eric

I tried a rebuild with great success. No more blowby.
No I think most of those engine treatments are at best bandaids and possibly a waste of money and at worst hurt the engine more than help. I don't really understand what additives can do for worn metal rings. I'd just run the thing 'till you can't anymore, then rebuild/replace it.
