Default 5W-30 synthetic ok for D24 non-turbo?

Owners manual recommends 20W-50 (or similar) for the temps we encounter here in SoCal.

Shop put in synthetic 5W-20. (castol magnatek)

According to the chart in the manual, that isn't recommended for temps above 70F.

Should I worry about it?

Car is a 1982 245 with 106k orig miles. Motor is in great shape.

Thanks!
