Comparing the E-PL5 and the E-PM2..does the extra weight of the PL5 make it less susceptible to SS ? Any actual results of that being the case ?

If the shutter is the same, as seems likely, then the extra weight of the E-PL5 should help a little bit, yes. But the difference may be rather marginal and I don't know of any test directly comparing these two bodies. However, there are plenty of tests showing that weight added in the proper place (e.g., under the body, in the form of a grip) is generally helpful.
