Fix it now! What part of "killing your engine" do you not understand? The sooner you fix it, the better off you'll be. Lord knows what shape your engine is in having used that oil for so long. It's like taking sludge, and pouring it into your engine. It's nothing but problems.

A heavier weight oil isn't going to fix an oil leak.

I think that's being just a tiny bit extreme, but it definitely isn't "good" to run that heavy of an oil. Chances are that it's just fine, but due to the factory clearances that the engine was built to it is obviously going to be better to run the recommended weight.

Just do it right, fix your gasket problem and change your oil. Two birds, one stone.
