I've been typing with the same speed for the last 30 years. It is not improving so I really doubt special exercise will do anything but marginal improvement.

Don't practice typing faster with your current method, because you already have for 30 years. Rather invest some time to learn a better method.

I learned touch typing within a week on holiday vacation with a software similar to this website: https://www.typingstudy.com/ (Young me felt very proud of being able to type like dad.) Once you have invested the time to learn the basic movements, you will become accustomed to them naturally.

You would be surprised by hovering your fingers over home row how naturally quickly you will start typing.
