Does anyone know what sort of oil is used in
these openers and if it's available?

I seem to recall "paraffin wax," which is a solid used for candles in
American; not the lamp oil described in English. As someone else said, the
seals are likely gone and the openers aren't worth rebuilding.
(So far, mine are working fine.....touch wood!)
