Default Best oil and lube to use

Last month we lost our home to the CZU fire and with it two pristine FWs, a Spartan 3/4 in excellent condition, a black long bed 301 and a 15-91 also very clean and nice. The FWs melted. : ( Needless to say, losing those sweet old machines remains difficult for me and I hope to have find one or two in the future.

Was using clock oil on those machines (oil destroyed) and need to purchase an oil for the one machine I was able to grab my Elna Air Electronic. And I'll also be wanting oil that will work well on a future vintage machine. So is clock oil really ok? There were comments by others who used it on their machines and I loved the long, metal rod out of the dispenser that allowedjust one drop to slide down and into where you exactly want the oil to go. It worked wonderfully on the FWs when tipped up to oil underneath.

Also, where's the best place to purchase the oil and other maintenance products? Starting all over again after 40+ years in our home. Thanks for your help.
