If you are concerned drop your oil pan and clean it out - only takes about 20 minutes and you'll have a better idea on the condition of your engine.
If you've been using 30W with no problems (no excessive consumption) go with 10W-30. When its cold it will have the pour quality (thickness) of 10W, when the engine heats up it will have the pour quality (thickness) of the 30W you've been using all along.
Some will claim your oil will break down or thin out using a multi weight, but that requires a lot more engine heat than what you're going to see with an IH C. Once you clean your oil pan out I'd never use nondetergent oil in that engine again.
