Use any good 90 wt Gear oil. I use Valvoline in my 3 rail OD tranny and

normal brake fluid, but don't use it in excess. Put just enough on to
slick up the parts and wipe the rest off.

You can probably find one at a local hardware store but if not let me
know. I have 3 spare starters laying around and I'm sure I can spare you
one.

before you.

That is the obvious answer, although I have seen them with and without
the stuff.
