If there is a neat & tidy way to do this - I have never found it.  I keep
an old paint brush to spread oil all over them and then let them drip for 3
or 4 days.

If it has been a long while but you're not going to take them apart -- you
might start with a dosing of PBlaster and let that soak a few days before
going with the heavier oil.
