Aeroshell 15w50 in the winter, and Aeroshell 100Wplus (w/Lyc 16072) in the summer, in all of:

Lyc O-320 x2
TCM IO-360 x1
Lyc AEIO-540 x4
TCM TSIO-520 x2

I think that's 11 engines ... I may have forgotten some.

Definitely only single grades. except with our PA-44 because of the AD ( too much hassle getting the additive especially with a Trainer/Rental airplane). Had nothing but problems with multi grades as soon as we switched to Straight grades we have had 7 years of no problems at all.
